Dielen’s Prunier 1914 43%

Dielen’s Prunier 1914 43%

Not the first Prunier on Hors d’Age, but the first Borderies from them. And quite a special one, as it has been bottled by Dielen’s (Dutch wine seller) and that’s another 1914 in this unprecedented Borderies line-up. 

Colour: Dark amber, gold lights. Regular medium tears. 

Nose: Tropical fruit profile, full of roasted pineapple notes. Delicate and explosive nose at the same time. 

Mouth: Delicious patine. Perfect spice variations. Discrete oak influence. Full-bodied cognac and that has to be noticed as it is a gem from 1914…

Last Notes: Crazy evolution with various herbal shades. Insolent freshness. Mouthwatering profile. Mamma Mia. Put one bottle straight in my grave. 

Well, that one has something special. Complex, refined with infinite evolution through the tasting. That’s gonna be something around 93…

Whole tasting session

 

93/100
