Ruby-red. Pungent dark berry and kirsch aromas are youthfully brooding, picking up a subtle licorice quality with air. Impressively concentrated but a bit ungiving right now, offering deep, chewy dark berry preserve flavors and serious tannic grip. Pretty cranky today.
From the Les Bessards and les Grandes Vignes lieux-dits, the 2005 Hermitage Marquise de la Tourette is a head turner that has tons of black raspberry, blackberry, toasted spice, graphite and crushed rock aromas literally soaring from the glass. Medium to full-bodied, nicely textured, balanced and drinking great today, it will continue to evolve nicely for another decade or more.
Anticipated maturity: 2015-2030
