M. Chapoutier – Eleivera 2013 – Douro

The nose is aromatic and quite intense. It reveals notes of boysenberry, cassis and slight hints of plum associated with a discreet hint of fig, spices as well as hints of eucalyptus and black olive. The palate is fruity, fine, sleek, well-defined and offers a beautiful fat, juiciness, a slight acid frame, a beautiful fruit, freshness, a good definition as well as a small aerial side. In the mouth this wine expresses notes of cassis, blueberry and more slightly blackberry associated with touch of crunchy Gariguette strawberry as well as slight hints of toasted oak, eucalyptus, olive and a discreet hint of zan. Good length.
