finessed and salty finish

This was a very hot vintage

the yields are so low and the vines so exposed that Bachelet says that he always harvests this parcel first)

It is fresh

Tourelles De Longueville Size:12x750ml finessed and salty finishThe 2009 Les Tourelles de Longueville has a lovely, pure bouquet with joyful red cherry and crushed strawberry aromas. The oak is beautifully integrated. The palate is medium bodied with supple tannin, and a fine line of acidity. Fleshy and nicely framed with raspberry and blackberry laced with tobacco and a generous sprinkling of cracked black pepper on the finish. Excellent. Tasted blind at Farr Vintners 2009 Bordeaux tasting. Neal Martin
