DOMAINE BARVILLE CHÂTEAUNEUF-DU-PAPE 2015 AC
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note Producer BROTTE
Fairly deep purple red colour. Spicy, juicy, plummy nose with lots of cedary notes. Fairly dry, bright, medium bodied, smooth, quite juicy, harmonious, ripe, plummy, maraschino cherry flavours with a lingering, crisp finish. This rather fleshy, fruit-driven, modern take on CduP isn’t quite in my style park. It has 14.5% and 4 g/L residual sugar. TONY ASPLER / 89-points - Cedary, savoury, earthy blackberry nose; savoury-herbal black fruit flavours with lively acidity. The 2010 (**+) was released on July 19, 2014 at $44.95. CSPC 148841

TASTING NOTE: Deep ruby. Intense, deeply perfumed aromas of raspberry liqueur, potpourri and incense carry a zesty mineral overtone. Plush, broad and seamless on the palate, offering alluringly sweet dark berry and spice cake flavors and a hint of candied lavender that emerges slowly on the back half. Finishes smooth, sweet and very long, displaying great focus and gently firming, slow-building tannins. The blend of richness and vivacity here is quite impressive.
