Mid-deep garnet

This should probably be drunk up sooner than later

The 2007 Alabaster came from pre-phylloxera vines yielding a miniscule half ton of fruit per acre

Jayer Gilles, Echezeaux Dessus other_regions Mid-deep garnet(from ~50 year old vines). A markedly spicy wide ranging nose combines notes of red cherry, raspberry, plum liqueur and hints of Asian style tea. The supple and round middle weight flavors arent especially dense though they do possess a seductive texture before culminating in a lightly stony, long and powerful finale where a touch of warmth gradually emerges. While this is certainly very good, its perhaps not quite at its usual very high level.
