struck match and nutty lees flavours to take centre stage here

Stupidly cheap price on these

Stil slightly tough on the end although there is already some aromatic evolution

2004 Moulin-Haut-Laroque, Fronsac struck match and nutty leesA big time sleeper of the vintage from Fronsac, this beauty from proprietor Jean Noel Herve has hit the bulls eye. A dark ruby purple color is accompanied by notes of black currants, sweet cherries, crushed rocks, and a distinctive minerality. It is a medium to full bodied, structured effort with sweet tannin, decent acidity, and oodles of fruit as well as richness. (RP)
