powerful and still scented

The wine is restrained

This firmly structured and beautifully persistent effort is really very good and worth a look

There is good punch and focused power to the more robust flavors that also display enough wood to mention on the otherwise balanced and moderately austere finale

This should age effortlessly and I would expect the minerality to develop even more with age

Taupenot Merme, Clos Lambrays other_regions powerful and still scentedHere there is no reductive funk and in fact the nose is really quite pretty with its airy mix of red and dark pinot fruit that display top notes of spice and herbal tea. The forward and quite supple lighter weight flavors possess a beguiling mouthfeel partially due to the refined tannins, all wrapped in a sophisticated, lilting and energetic finish. This is an elegant and classy if not particularly dense wine. (90 93) 2027+
