rustic and youthfully austere finale
its semi-opaque ruby color is followed by sensational notes of ripe currants and darker fruits
yet it's very balanced and elegant too

Faurie, Hermitage Bessard Meal other_regions rustic and youthfully austere finaleInky 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
