Sweet tobacco

The Richebourg vines have been replanted 3 times and they are now 15

painfully young Cristal that will require considerable patience

hints of blood orange and white pepper on the aftertaste

with honeyed impingement both aromatically and on the palate reinforcing the sense of relative opacity and rounded richness that the other Graachers in this year s collection displayed

Meyney other_regions Sweet tobaccoThe 2010 Meyney is a superb follow up to the 2009, perhaps displaying more definition to the dusky black fruit, sous bois, graphite and pressed rose petal scents that burst from the glass. The palate is medium bodied with fine grained tannins, a clean line of acidity and more precision on the finish compared to the previous vintage. Excellent. Tasted at a vertical at Chteau Meyney.
