justerini & brooks tasting note

We fell for the charming Lalande Borie 2015 en primeur. It was without doubt the most seductive and pleasurable wine we've tasted from this plot near to Lagrange. Produced from 55% Merlot and 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, there's an exuberance to the fragrant bouquet: wild flowers, sweet plums, dried goji, alpine strawberry and blueberry. The palate is so seamless and generous it gave the impression that you could drink it straight away. Damsons, Kirsch, svelte purple fruit delight the palate with wave after wave of beautifully textured fruit. In addition to the natural generosity of the vintage, Bruno and his team have tamed any rusticity on the finish. The tannins are refined and harmonious. In short, it's a vivacious, quite luxuriant style of St Julien, which offers tremendous value for money. Drink now-2030.
