creme de cassis

very good and now fully mature

velvety tannins and echoing sweet blue fruit

I had the opportunity to retaste the wonderful 2015 Hermitage and have taken this opportunity to up my rating of it a couple of points

silky tannins provide the backdrop as the 2001 opens up in the glass

Fourrier, Gevrey Chambertin Combe Moines Vv other_regions_italy creme de cassisA fascinating mix of vibrant, indeed even racy red fruit aromas and pungent wet earth notes lead to linear, frank and direct flavors that are fuller, richer and denser than those of the Champeaux but ultimately less complex and not quite as deep on the backend. Still, this is delicious and striking in its way.
