Château de Laborde – Aux Etoiles 2015 – Gevrey-Chambertin

The nose is fruity and offers elegance, generosity as well as a good definition. It reveals notes of fleshy cherry, fleshy raspberry and small notes of violet/plum associated with a touch of strawberry as well as discreet hints of toasted, sweet spices and a very discreet/imperceptible hint of vanilla. The palate is fruity, juicy, mineral, well-balanced and offers a good definition, a beautiful suavity, a beautiful finesse as well as an acidulous frame. On the palate this wine expresses notes of black cherry, fleshy/juicy raspberry associated with fine touches of violet plum as well as hints of toasted, tonka bean and a very discreet hint of caramelization. Tannins are well-built. Very discreet chews on the finish.
