Domaine Lafarge Vial Fleurie Clos Vernay 2016
"This is also beautifully elegant while offering a different expression with its cool, pure and equally well-layered nose of spicy and overtly floral red cherry aromas that are cut with plenty of humus-inflected earth. There is a refined yet marked intensity to the delineated middle weight flavours that terminate in a strikingly long and mineral-driven finish that is shaped by very firm but not hard or even especially austere tannins. This too is remarkably good and if you've got the patience to cellar it for at least a few years, would make a great choice." - Allen Meadows, Burghound
