“Liquorice, star anise and blackberry, this speaks strongly of the Cote Brune. Full-bodied, unctuously textured, with muscular tannins, very round and bulbous, with sweet black fruit on the finish with ingrained wood spice. Has considerably more depth and length than his Esprit de Blonde, and will last longer. Alcohol just gently warming. From lieu-dit Cote Rozier, on the Brune side (mica schist bedrock). All destemmed, 18 months in new barriques.”
“Concentrated, lush, energetic, and packed with flowers, lightly- smoked black plums, espresso, and dark cherries with a hint of chocolate around the edges of this full-bodied wine. Give it a few years for the oak to better integrate. Drink from 2025-2040.”
