Maison Nicolas Perrin Saint-Joseph 2010
Southern Rhone, Rhone Valley, FranceThe style is meant to be more Cote RĂ´tie more elegant. Look for smoky, savoury, cedar, liquorice root, meaty, mineral notes with bits of barnyard, leather, spice and mace aromas. Dry, fresh, round, medium bodied palate with light tannins. Peppery, roast meat, roast pepper, smoky, savoury, prune and cherry flavours. A bit angular but fresh. Just a baby that needs time.Tasted: 24 January 2013Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $40.00 | 750ml | Spec |
