Louis Bernard Domaine de Montbayon Vacqueyras 2011
Vacqueyras, Southern Rhone, Rhone Valley, FranceWow impressive meaty, savoury, garrigue nose with black cherry, smoky, plum and pepper aromas. Full, rich, round, slightly tannic (youthful) palate. Rich open intense smoky, meaty, black cherry, plum, coffee flavours with bits of savoury, peppery tobacco flavours. Lots of intensity here for the money. Young, should improve with 1-3 years. A super wine for lamb. Great value.Tasted: 30 August 2013Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $26.00 | 750ml | speculative listing - Authentic Wine & Spirits |
