Rivesaltes 1963 Domaine La Sobilane

Professionelle Bewertungen

Robert Parker (93)

The 1963 Rivesaltes from Domaine La Sobilane, which produced vin doux naturel until the end of the 1980s, is mainly black Grenache. It has a refulgent tawny/golden color. It has a very detailed bouquet with scents of marmalade, peach skin and Mirabelle that opens beautifully in the glass. The palate is very well defined with a fine bead of acidity, notes of ginger, marmalade and then later, a touch of Earl Grey. The palate is well balanced with fine tannin, quite feminine and elegant, with a gentle "pulsing" of spice on the tongue with subtle lemongrass notes on the finish. Slightly chilled, this will be divine. Tasted June 2017.
