Rare Cuvees - La Planette

Very dark, deep red in colour. A superb nose of crushed raspberry, blackcurrant, and prune that after swirling reveals finely spicy notes followed by truffle, mocha, and black olive tapenade. The tannins are powerful, smooth, and elegant. Well balanced in the mouth with blackberry, preserved cherry, black fig, and boxwood and a nicely taut finish of eucalyptus, coconut, and the freshness of peppermint. This sumptuous wine, in all its elegance, is the perfect expression of this atypical terroir of the altitude vines of La Livinière.
