Faurie, Hermitage Bessard Meal

Faurie, Hermitage Bessard MealInky ruby. Suave, mineral and spice accented aromas of blackberry, cherry and pungent flowers show superb clarity and energetic lift. Sappy and penetrating on the palate, displaying concentrated, sharply defined black blue fruit, violet pastille and spicecake flavors that become livelier as the wine opens up. Finishes extremely long and mineral, with intense, spicy thrust, a hint of cracked pepper and youthfully chewy tannins. (red capsule) Josh

The 2013 needs time for the classic Monvigliero perfume to emerge fully

with a lovely suave texture

with a streamlined shape on the palate and a long

sub-regional introduction to the range is consistently and strikingly savoury

with graphite

pure red fruits on the palate and in the finish

This is an excellent candidate for long cellaring

The tannic power of the wine is also contained

Best from 2024 through 2042

A brooding yet softly perfumed nose is comprised of a variety of green fruit
