Domaine François Lamarche
La Grande Rue, Grand Cru, 2015
justerini & brooks tasting note
The most taciturn wine of the range but its sheer class is evident in how beautifully proportioned and weighted it is. Gentle floral notes fuse with ripe cherry, berry, stone and cool earth with complex Asian spice nuances. So long, beguiling and sophisticated. La Grande Rue is an exceptional vineyard that sits next to La Tâche and was granted the honour of Grand Cru status in 1992.
