Dark fruit and dried blackberry are followed by exotic spice and campfire ash

it’s that there is limited depth though there is enough material that it may develop with a few years of bottle age

There is enough wood and reduction to notice so I would strongly advise decanting this if you’re inclined to try a bottle young

This wine is aging in French oak barriques

Although the Cerequio vineyard did not suffer hail in 2014 (it did in 2016)

Jean Fournier, Marsannay Trois Terres Vv other_regions_italy Dark fruit and dried blackberry(from a blend of Clos du Roy, Longeroies and Es Chezots). This is also firmly reduced and aromatically unreadable today. There is more volume to the rich, concentrated and caressing yet powerful middleweight plus flavors that conclude in a compact, serious and long if somewhat grippy finale that makes clear that extended cellaring will be necessary.
