Grosperrin Borderies 1960 52,4%

Grosperrin BORDERIES 1960 52,4%


A few Grosperrin’s vintages then, including that 1960.

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

Nose: Earthy and heady at first. Maybe a tad too oaky and a lack of depth.

Mouth: Nice texture, but you feel this astringent oakiness previously perceived. Great fresh fruity notes with mouth length.

Last Notes:  Appearance of nice tropical fruits notes, vegetal shades (smash basil) in the background.

Quite unbalanced, but a fresh profile that fits my tastes. The earthiness is less prominent with air.

 

89/100
