DESCENDIENTES DE JOSÉ PALACIOS – LAS LAMAS – DESCENDIENTES DE JOSÉ PALACIOS LAS LAMAS 2015
Notes de dégustation: couleur rubis intense. Le nez et sur les fruits noirs et rouges, cerise rouge et noir et la mûre avec des notes de bois de santal et d’épices orientales. C’est plus puissant et concentré que pour les vins des autres parcelles mais celle-ci se situe au sud. Néanmoins, le vin n’est pas lourd et on sent poindre de l’élégance sous le fruit encore primaire. C’est charnel, musclé mais pas bodybuildé et les tannins gardent le fruit en harmonie avec l’ensemble.
VIN : DESCENDIENTES DE JOSÉ PALACIOS LAS LAMAS 2015 |
Curiously enough, the 2015 Las Lamas felt more focused and defined than the 2014, despite having been a warmer year. It sometimes seems like the warmer, southern exposure of the vineyard really shines in warmer years, when in principle, it should be the other way around. I even found notes of blood orange here, which I tend to associate with cooler vintages and northern exposures. But in any case, this 2015 is truly exceptional. It took some time to open up in the glass, so if you pull the cork anytime soon, decant it in advance, but I’m sure the best for this 2015 is yet to come. 3,649 bottles and some other formats were filled in March 2017.
