This is impressive in its fashion though it’s a bit too ripe for me

A discreet touch of reduction still allows the earthy red berry and black cherry aromas to express themselves

strangely making me think of Danish pastry towards the well-defined finish

This is quite densely fruited with floral and freshly turned earth aromas adding interest to the wild and medium-toned red berry fruit

It's truly a stunning example of old vine Grenache

Bouchard Pere et Fils, Volnay Caillerets Ancienne Cuvee Carnot other_regions_italy This is impressive in itsVery ripe liqueur like aromas of various black berries are nuanced by plenty of spice and floral elements. There is excellent underlying tension to the beautifully textured medium weight flavors that also brim with sappy dry extract and minerality, all wrapped in a bitter pit fruit finale that offers impressive persistence. This is definitely atypical but the intrinsic class of a fine Caillerets is still present.
