Henri Badoux – Aigle Les Murailles Rouge 2013 – Chablais

Red wine with a medium deep colour, some evolution, light ruby on the rim. Youthful nose displaying sweet red fruit, crushed berries, mild spices; discrete wood. Palate is quite soft and supple, supple texture, rounded with what I would call a Burgundian texture; nice juicy red fruit, some plum, gently spicy notes. Good grip on the palate, fresh, vibrant, young red fruit, keeps lingering for a good while. Well-balanced. I suppose this is a style most people drink young; I think it is attractive right now, but doubtlessly with the potential to be aged for another 4 to 6 years.

Tasted by the Best Sommelier of the World, Andreas Larsson.
