with a mix of fruit and spice on the lingering finish

indeed this may the first vintage in quite a while where it is ready before the Richebourg

intense and extract-rich medium weight flavors that possess fine delineation and an abundance of minerality

Tourelles De Longueville other_regions_italy 800 cases madeThe 2009 Les Tourelles de Longueville has a lovely, pure bouquet with joyful red cherry and crushed strawberry aromas. The oak is beautifully integrated. The palate is medium bodied with supple tannin, and a fine line of acidity. Fleshy and nicely framed with raspberry and blackberry laced with tobacco and a generous sprinkling of cracked black pepper on the finish. Excellent. Tasted blind at Farr Vintners 2009 Bordeaux tasting. Neal Martin
