Domaine Bernard Faurie Hermitage Greffieux & Bessards 2015
Red
Hermitage, France

WineSaint
Outrageously concentrated and mineral-driven, with dense cassis, graphite and crushed stone aromatics that build powerfully in the glass. The palate shows remarkable depth. Dark fruit mingles with licorice, cedar and exotic spice notes. Firm, structured tannins provide backbone without overwhelming the wine's impressive fruit density. Classic granite-driven Hermitage that demands patience. Drink 2025-2040.
