Domaine Jean-Charles Rion
Color: intense ruby with purple highlights. Nose: black cherry, ripe raspberry, cassis, violet and rose. A second nose reveals notes of liquorice, undergrowth and a delicate smoky touch. Palate: silky, broad and fruit-driven on the attack. Fine, ripe tannins provide harmonious structure. The long, persistent finish reveals dark fruits, spices and delicate minerality. Comment: the balance between freshness, concentration and velvety texture is remarkable.
