Tasting Notes for 2009 Domaine Prieuré-Roch Vieilles Vignes

The wine opens with an explosive, hypnotic bouquet of dark cherry liqueur, ripe black plum, dried violet, and truffled earth. Furthermore, complex accents of warm leather, sandalwood, Asian spice box, and roasted game emerge as the wine breathes. On the palate, a luxurious, satin-smooth attack expands into a focused core of spiced dark fruit, framed by completely resolved, fine tannins. Consequently, the finish lingers with profound savory warmth, sweet fruit purity, and regal persistence.
