Moulin-à-Vent Clos de Rochegrès 2018

- 94 points -

The 2018 Moulin-à-Vent Clos de Rochegrès has turned out beautifully, unfurling in the glass with a youthfully primary bouquet of black cherries, blackberries, candied peel and sweet soil tones. Medium to full-bodied, deep and multidimensional, it's rich and layered, with an ample core of fruit, lively acids and a gourmand, enveloping profile. Its oak is already entirely integrated to the extent of being imperceptible—which, for my palate, takes this cuvée to a new level.
