plenty of cassis and black cherry fruit

The adaption of some of the Grange "formula" (for want of a better term) of winemaking seems to lend more of an Australian style to this wine

The Bolorée often gives the impression it is holding considerable power in reserve

Best from 2021 through 2038

A product of the philosophy of Jean-Luc Thunevin

Faurie, Hermitage Bessard Meal other_regions_italy plenty of cassis and blackInky ruby. Suave, mineral and spice accented aromas of blackberry, cherry and pungent flowers show superb clarity and energetic lift. Sappy and penetrating on the palate, displaying concentrated, sharply defined black blue fruit, violet pastille and spicecake flavors that become livelier as the wine opens up. Finishes extremely long and mineral, with intense, spicy thrust, a hint of cracked pepper and youthfully chewy tannins. (red capsule) Josh
