crisp and dry finale that exhibits slightly better depth and persistence
Roche Bellene, Echezeaux Vintage:2017 Kerin O’KeefeThere is just enough wood present to warrant mentioning on the spicier and more deeply pitched nose of plum, exotic tea and black cherry scents. The sleeker and finer but not denser medium weight flavors possess very good volume while delivering outstanding length on the youthfully austere and balanced finale. This is also firm enough that it's going to require at least 6 to 8 years of keeping first and should ultimately reward 12 to 15.
