Wine-scores

“Evaluate a wine is something very subjective and, every palate is different. Perfection is something very personal, that’s why I rarely give a 100 Point score. And in the end the comment is more important. That’s also the reason I like to follow a wine several times, particularly during its first 2-3 years when it often changes the most and the consumer needs guidance.”

100000	90	Abremundos - Octava Alta	2011			Mendoza	Red	Argentina	Cabernet Franc, Malbec			gestion.contable@monteviejo.com.ar; marketing@monteviejo.com.ar				Larsson	Youthful with a very dark and inky colour. Nose is also really youthful it is rather showing off primary fruit. Slight hint of roasted oak in the background, but quite discreet with some spicy and peppery notes. Palate has a medium weight I would say. It is a wine with a high level of ripeness, so the fruit is rather on the dark side like; cherry, plum or dark cherry, plum, blackberry. Fine pepperiness there and quite mellow extraction. There is a fine level of tannin for sure, but quite well integrated at this stage. Good freshness, quite long finish. With those peppery, spicy notes. So it starts out quite bold and ripe and it finishes on that fresh and spicy side. I don't really pick up any oak on the taste. Good level of acidity as well, because it obviously feels like a quite warm climate with all that ripe fruit, but well balanced. I would call it with a fine drinkability for today, however, it will gain far more complexity from a few more years in the cellar.	24/09/2015
100001	90	Alexandre Poutrain&Romain Parisis - Evil Red	2018	Chinon		Loire Valley	Red	France								Larsson	Intense dark inky purple colour. Youthful nose displaying dark and ripe fruit like cassis, plum, cherry with sage and bay leaf, a mild hint of oak in the background. The palate shows dense fruit within a medium bodied frame, good freshness paired with inky dark fruit notes, crushed black currants, a gentle hint of oak and butterscotch underneath, good purity and a long finish. Still youthful but should develop really well.	30/11/-0001

100003	88	Allegria - La Belle Histoire	2018	Pézenas		Languedoc/Roussillon	Red	France	Syrah, Mourvèdre							Larsson	Inky dark purple colour. The nose reveals a hint of oak, garrigue, pepper and sweet wild berries. Dense palate, quite rich in tannin, a bit on the youthful side today, yet nice red fruit and wild herb spiciness, fresh acidity underneath and a rather long finish. Still needing some time to open.	30/11/-0001

100009	94	Cave de L'Abbé Rous - Baillaury	2008	Banyuls	Grand Cru	Languedoc/Roussillon	Sweet	France				craspaut@templers.com		04 68 88 72 72	Cave de l’Abbé Rous	Larsson	Tawny colour with a slight garnet hue. Intense, complex and mature nose offering sweet and dried fruit like macerated cherries, kirsch, prunes, figs, roasted nuts, leather and tobacco. Very rewarding palate with balanced sweetness, yet it is underlined by fine tannin, acidity and a nice "dry" sensation, nutty and complex with plenty of dry spices, balanced alcohol and a very good grip and length.	30/11/-0001
