An attractively spicy and notably ripe if markedly reserved nose offers up notes of plum

Petit Mouton other_regions some larger vatsThe 2015 Le Petit Mouton feels a little closed on the nose, which displays pronounced undergrowth and sage like aromas but is not quite endowed with the energy of the excellent Saint Juliens. The fresh, vibrant palate is medium bodied with fine tannin, crisp acidity and fine precision toward the finish, so that it ends on a high note. Tasted blind at the Southwold 2015 Bordeaux tasting.
