André Delorme 2014 – Mercurey

The nose is aromatic, fresh and offers gourmandise as well as a slight intensity. It reveals notes of lemon, crushed white fruits (pear, nectarine) and slight hints of quince associated with a subtle hint of clementine flowers as well as discreet hints of butter and discreet toasted hints. The palate is fruity, gourmand, well-balanced, slightly tight and offers a beautiful mineral frame (racy minerality), a slight acidity, softness, harmony, a nice volume, a beautiful fat as well as a slight gourmandise. In the mouth this wine expresses notes of ripe lemon, ripe/juicy mandarin and mirabelle associated with touches of ripe white fruits as well as slight hints of racy minerality/flint and a very subtle toasted hint. Good length. There is a hint of butter, toasted hint and almond on the persistence.
