Remizieres, Hermitage 1999

Purple/red.

Great nose of wilted greens, sausage/smoked salmon and integrated oak smoke/spice. Black pepper a late arrival.

Intensely flavored middle-weight, with flavors echoing nose. Structure is (front teeth) stout, but lets flavors ride through without a hiccup.

Day 3 - Nose now dominated by black fruit, earth and a medicinal note. Almost fat in the mouth, with spicy black fruit front and center, supported by sausage, wilted greens and earth.
