"Good medium red. Subtly complex, ineffable perfume offers raspberry, heady blood orange, white and black pepper and piquant minerality. The palate offers an uncanny combination of silky texture and outstanding precision and cut, with great lift and inner-mouth aromatic character to the flavors of sappy fresh raspberry and pungent crushed stone. This wonderfully tactile, fine-grained Amoureuses leaves the taste buds quivering on the rising, gripping aftertaste, where the noble tannins are almost invisible today." Vinous, Jan 2013 |
