when you smell this dark cherry red colored wine, you can feel spicy aromas and a touch of pepper which desapear in favor of fruity aroma.
tasting this wine is a pleasure.Indeed, you feel in mouth, the supple soft attack completed by the full bodied evolution.
This tasting has a well structured finish where you can feel tannins.
The touch of strongness well balanced with the fruitiness permits to this wine to be eaten with some red meat for example.

2005 Louis Latour
- Appellation Meursault
(France / Burgundy / Cote d'Or)
|
ALCOHOL: 13.5%
RATED: 03/30/2009 |
|
|
|
| COMMENTS: |
In the eyes, this wine is pale to light golden yellow, very pleasant and elegant. Instead a strong odor of alcohol, the most curious noses will recognize fragrance of raisins, green apple and lemon. If you are a bigger expert, you will be able to smell grappe fruit and pineapple. Anyway, in the nose it's already lively.
In the mouth, you will taste pineapple and lemon, that you have already recognized and a charming tatse of spice bred.
This wine is full in mouth, long and rich, crispy in the beginning with a refreshing attack.
However, this vintage is a difficult because it's a bit closed, with a lack of roudness and bodiness it should usually have when it's more opened.

2004 Les cent vignes
(France / Burgundy / Cote de Beaune / Beaune)
|
RATED: 03/30/2009 |

|
|
| COMMENTS: |
This brick red wine gives you an idea about how good its vinetage is.
The first smell reveals the typical fragrances of Pinot Noir, with its strong wild cherry smell. But you can also detect other fruits and a delicate herbal fragrance.
Then with the first sip, the wine immediately spreads in your whole mouth. It's a rich and round wine, but also tannic.
You will also enjoy its fruity aftertaste. Staying in your palet, this wine proves its incredible velvety.
A very good Pinot Noir.

2005 Chateau Fourcas-Dupre
-
60% Cabernet ; 40% Merlot
(France / Bordeaux / Medoc)
|
RATED: 03/30/2009 |
|
|
|
| COMMENTS: |
In the eyes, this wine is unusual because of its brightness and it's cherry red colour. Tannins are very present, which s typical of a cabernet Sauvignon. However, this wine is round, lively and well structured and very coated : astringency due to tannins is quite soft.
In mouth, a Chateau Fourcas Dupre has a full character and remarkable rusty and spicy flavors like pepper, blackcurrent, vanilla, roasted coffee beans and cloves.
A small inconvenient could be its light acidity, but it's not very strong. Furthermore, best amators of wine could be able to recognize a typical oaky flavor.

This wine has a light golden yellow color.
It has pleasant smells of grape fruits, green apple and citrus.
Like many chardonnay wines, it has a refreshing crispy attack.
The evolution gives a nice spice bread taste, and a round note, but we should have expected more roundness.
At the end, the wine is full in the mouth, rich and long.
It is a nice fruity light wine.

This blended Bordeaux wine seems to have a dark cherry red colour. It smells soft black fruit flavour, oaky flavour, with a slightly spicy tone.
I detect a certain roundness and mellowness attack. Then it seems to have a harmonious astringency due to the presence of tannins in Cabernet Sauvignon. These characteristics give a wine long in the mouth and well balanced between suppleness and astringency.
It is all what I expected of a very good French wine!

A complex mouthfeel. First you can feel a very light and soft attack.Then, the flavors in the palate become very inviting showing a round evolution with a touch of freshness. And at the end, this wine shows a soft finish and the tannins are hardly perceptible.
A very well balanced red wine, very light and very easy to drink.
