Grosperrin Borderies Lot 14 43,8%

Grosperrin Lot 19.14 43,8%

First Grosperrin of this line-up and obviously not the last. And another 1914, but how could you get bored?   

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

Nose: Vinous and port wine notes. Heady blood orange notes. Discrete but refined.

Mouth: Tinned fruits and red berries acidulous notes with air. Very impressive concentration. Hints of blackcurrant juice aromas in the background. 

Last Notes:  Nice evolution with air, even if I was expecting a bit more to be honest. Still some really nice old port wine shades.

Heavy, full-bodied Borderies. Precision, strength, great range of aromas. Not my favorite out of these 12, but that’s a very solid one for sure. 

Whole tasting session

 

91/100
