2015 Laurent Perrachon Julienas Les Mouilles

Brilliant ruby-red. Bright red fruit and floral scents are complicated by suggestions of white pepper and allspice. Silky and seamless on the palate, offering juicy raspberry and bitter cherry flavors that flesh out and become sweeter on the back half. Suave and open-knit, delivering strong closing thrust and just a hint of supple tannins that add shape and gentle grip.
