2011 La Grande Rue, Domaine Francois Lamarche

A deep ruby dry red wine with pronounced level aromas of rose perfume, red cherry jam, strawberry candy vanilla, nutmeg, and touch of cedar. Medium acidity and alcohol, quite full bodied with medium soft and ripe tannin. On palate it gives quite high flavours of red plum strawberry, vanilla, cedar and rose. Longer than medium length with red plum finish. (92) Quite jammy and full. Need better palate.

我說過這莊的酒越來越好，其中一項是因為越來越濃。2011年的這酒濃至有強強的醬果味，而且亦有一定香料的複雜性，很吸引。酒體豐厚，單寧成熟，一點也不像2011年，相信他們選擇葡萄時下了一定功夫。酒味在口中保持強度，只是複雜性下降了點，餘韻亦長，好好味。
