Château de Laborde – Vieilles Vignes 2018 – Gevrey-Chambertin

The nose is fruity, gourmand and offers a small richness as well as a fine power. It reveals notes of fleshy strawberry, fleshy cherry, small notes of bright raspberry associated with small touches of blackberry as well as hints of small crushed red berries, discreet hints of liquorice and an imperceptible hint of pepper (in the background). The palate is fruity and offers an aerial side, delicacy, elegance as well as a beautiful definition of the fruit, an acidulous frame, gourmandize, precision and a beautiful fleshy/juicy/pulpy fruit. On the palate this wine expresses notes of cherry cream, crushed redcurrant, small notes of strawberry associated with touches of juicy/acidulous blackberry, violet as well as fine hints of liquorice, lily and very discreet hints of vanilla (in the background). Good length.
