Saumur-Champigny, Anjou-Saumur, Loire Valley, France
Awesome nose. So peppery and herbal with gorgeous red berry fruit. Terrific earthiness and complexity. So focused and aromatic. Outstanding. Palate is so fresh and energetic. So linear and focused. Elegant, complex and long. Age has really made this a wonder. Juicy and concentrated. Lovely pearly tannins and a building sweetness on the finish. Terrific wine.

Really pretty cab franc. Boysenberry fruit, chalky minerality, pencil shavings and nice acid. Yum!

1 person found it helpfulFeb 24th, 2017Wow. As advertised, Thierry killed 2015. Stunning wine and best FDP ever from this estate. Floral, lavender, roses, berry, mineral, earth, very refined and perfumed. As it aired out it just got crazy. What a nose. Truly outstanding. The palate is just so complete. Juicy and dense yet startlingly fresh and complex. Awesome tannins and balance. Young but not impossibly so. So long on the palate. Wonderful.
