Domaine de Courcel Grand Clos des Épenots 1er Cru 2008

Tasting Notes

Showing admirably, with a plummy, forward fruit aroma that offers hints of spice, earth and black tea. The tannins are starting to settle down, yet there is no lack of structure or length. The finish is impressive, with floral notes giving expressive complexity to the dark fruit. The purity of fruit is doubtless down to the rigorous sorting at this domaine. Drinking now and should continue for at least another decade. Drinking window: 2024-2045. (Charles Curtis, MW,decanter.com,April 21, 2024)
