Sylvain Pataille, Marsannay Grasses Tetes other_regions_italy exotic tea and sandalwood aromas(one barrel made; 100% whole clusters). A super floral nose displays a hint of green tea on the discreetly spicy aromas of essence of various red berries along with a hint of cool earth. The round, delicious and seductively textured medium bodied flavors possess a certain taut muscularity that adds a touch of firmness to the clean, dry and well balanced finale that exhibits sneaky good length. This is very good and if you can find it, dont hesitate.
