Coursodon St Joseph L'Olivaie 2017

Opaque ruby. Bright and energetic on the perfumed nose, displaying intense dark berry and floral scents that pick up spicy character as the wine opens up. In a juicy, fruit-driven style, offering appealingly sweet blueberry and cherry flavors and suggestions of licorice and candied violet. Finishes very long and smooth, with just a trace of velvety tannins and resonating spiciness. JOSH RAYNOLDS, Vinous.com
