Offering up aromas of confit citrus

Dark and ripe

with supple tannins quickly absorbed by the wine's plush fruit

The tighter and punchier medium-bodied flavors possess very good mid-palate density while the finish delivers a bit more depth though not quite the same refinement

the deep garnet-purple colored 2014 Thorevilos Proprietary Red has a very meaty nose with charcuterie

Gerard Raphet, Clos Vougeot Vv other_regions_italy Offering up aromas of confit(from a tiny . 20 ha parcel of 100+ year old vines). This is the first wine to display any appreciable wood influence and even here its not intrusive and easily allows the ripe but fresh nose of red and dark currant, floral and newly turned earth scents to shine. There is excellent richness to the full bodied flavors that possess plenty of dry extract that also serves to buffer the moderately firm tannic spine on the balanced and persistent finish.
