The taste of Laroze 2007

I’m not sure I’m the least well-placed to discuss this, but in any case up to today, I am one of the few to have any information on the subject, because the wine has not been distributed yet, so I can “just do it” without any particular hang-ups.
If any wine has sex-appeal, this one does. All the ingredients are melded and in place. The wood is nicely blended in and quite flattering, and nicely sets off the very fresh fruity hints. The tannins are not especially powerful, but contribute sheer silk and velvet.
The finish prolongs all this with an emphasis on the aromatic freshness. This wine will be very enjoyable soon, but could also age nicely in a good cellar.

You shouldn’t miss this vintage, because it is really exceptional value and enjoyable taste for money, and has benefited from the Laroze expertise, which never ceases to grow.
