Chateau Rocheyron (Saint Emilion Grand Cru)

A deep, intense jet-plum, richly-textured, this clings to the glass. The nose evokes a splendid array of complementary aromatics, very vibrant, sweet, primary fruit, cassis and wild berries enriched, on the one hand by coffee-mocha notes and on the other refreshed with almost citric vitality, warm fruitcake and candied peel. The palate is breezy and upbeat, reflecting the complexity of the nose, set within a ripe, firm structure, very pure, concentrated, generous and controlled through to a poised, elegant finish.
