Heritage Rene Riviere XXO 47%

When we’re talking about Borderies, Heritage Rene Riviere has to be quoted. Maybe one of the most remarkable kind of Borderies. I would not say that’s easy to guess an HRR in a blind tasting session, but you always get some obvious clue. Let’s begin with this X.X.O.

Colour: Dark amber, gold lights. Heavy irregular tears. 

Nose: Generous zesty notes at first. Full of citruses shades. What an appealing heady perfume.

Mouth: Thin texture, you feel that’s a kind of delicate cognac here. Nice floral shades. Acidulous fruity aromas then.

Last Notes:  Nice evolution with air, even if I was expecting a bit more to be honest. And a tad imprecise to be honest. 

The nose was so appealing. But I’m not that convinced by the palate, with a lack of depth and precision.
