Georges Roumier Bonnes Mares Grand Cru 2015 Australia An even more elegant nose

An even more elegant nose of spicy and floral red and black pinot fruit is nuanced by subtle traces of sandalwood

the palate has opened up and is beginning to pump on all cylinders

A ripe but cool and highly complex nose of moderately wooded aromas of violets

or those white soils

from a cooler zone of the valley

Georges Roumier Bonnes Mares Grand Cru 2015 Australia An even more elegant noseAn overtly spicy and floral scented nose reveals additional notes of plum, cassis, orange pekoe tea and plenty of earth. The rich, bold, powerful and firmly muscular large scaled flavors possess superb mid palate concentration where the abundant dry extract also buffers the presently unyielding tannic backbone on the massively long finish. This is, simply put, spectacular and about the only nit is a discreet touch of backend warmth.
