4.5·@Lo Bar · Burgundy: '09 vs '15
This wine captivates from the very first encounter, with its enchanting bouquet that gracefully marries floral notes, particularly red flowers, with the succulent scents of strawberry and morello cherry. This is seamlessly interwoven with the warm intricacy of spices and a subtle underbrush character.
The oak integration is commendable, providing just the right touch of vanilla without overwhelming the wine's inherent qualities. Its balance approaches perfection, complemented by a long, lingering aftertaste. While the tannins exhibit a bit of harshness, this aspect is cleverly juxtaposed with intriguing flavours of raw meat, adding depth and character. The fruit quality is exceptional, contributing to the overall delightful and delicious experience of this wine.
