The 2006 Le Desir

black cherries and crushed blackcurrants notes plus hints of Sichuan pepper

all in the ripe

From top to bottom

This is not overly concentrated but the harmony of expression is impressive and I very much like the complex floral quality of the finale

Fontaine Gagnard, Chassagne Montrachet Vergers other_regions_italy The 2006 Le Desir(from Vergers proper). Smoky reduction masks all but hints of cool citrus. More appealing are the rich, delicious and vibrant middle weight flavors that possess very good cut and an equally attractive texture on the compact, more tightly wound and youthfully austere finish. Lovely.
