This is also wonderfully fresh and cool with a similar array of fruit and floral elements though here the earth element is a bit more pronounced

tannic finish that has immense precision

Lovely lift to the gamey aromas of blackberry

The 2018 Les Perrieres de Lafleur is a blend of 49% Merlot and 51% Cabernet Franc

Here the nose is actually quite similar to that of the Bèze save for the fact that the aromas are slightly cooler and more restrained as well as a bit less spicy

well-made wine requires 5-6 years of cellaring

It has the inner power of the old vines and the struggle of the Priorat conditions

An appealing elegant

focused and lingering finish

plum and soft earth wisps

This too is quite ripe with its liqueur-like aromas of black raspberry

This mindblowing bottle hit every note on the scale
