Clos St Denis, Grand Cru, Maison Roche de Bellene

Note:

There is a nose of floral-based reduction which is what the French call “bourgeon de cassis”. The supple, round and very forward flavors lack the same concentration as the Amoureuses and while this is certainly pretty as the tannins are notably fine-grained, it`s awfully light for a grand cru.
