Domaine de Roche-Guillon 2015 – Fleurie

The nose is fruity and slightly powerful (in the background). It reveals notes of black cherry, juicy black berries and slight hints of plum associated with a discreet hint of violet as well as a slight toasted touch, licorice and gray pepper (in the background).  The palate is fruity, well-balanced, silky and offers a beautiful mineral frame, a very slight acidity (in the background), suavity, a certain straightness, gourmandise as well as a good definition. In the mouth this wine expresses notes of fleshy blackberry, juicy fleshy plum and slight notes of blueberry associated with a hint of juicy fleshy black cherry, slight notes of bluberry, a hint of juicy fleshy cherry as well as hints of toasted oak, sweet spices, a discreet hint of chocolate and an imperceptible hint of vanilla. Tannins are well-built. Good length.
