The 2017 Memorious from Domaine de la Côte begins with striking aromatics, offering aromas of crushed strawberry, red plum, black currant, wild berries, hazelnut, lavender and shades of bergamot. The palate shows wonderful elegance, with a sweet inner-ripeness, laced with pretty flavors of wild raspberry, stone fruits, exotic spices, saline and a sense of earthiness. It goes on to impress with its gorgeous velvety texture and beautifully integrated acidity that offers lift and brightness through the long, lingering finish. This is nothing short of utterly brilliant today, and I can only see this becoming even more compelling as it evolves gracegully over the next decade and beyond.
