RP 97

A blend of Dupperay's two parcels in Les Moriers and La Chapelle des Bois, the 2015 Fleurie is, if anything, more profound and slowly unfurls with aeration to reveal aromas of black raspberries, rose petals, licorice and Griotte cherry. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, satiny and multidimensional, with tangy balancing acids and a deep, super concentrated core that almost entirely conceals its structuring chassis of tannins. This is shut down for the long haul, but its immense potential is nonetheless impossible to miss.
