LA PÈIRA EN DAMAISÈLA 'Las Flors' 2009

2012 TOP 50 WINES - Rank #4
La Peira is considered by many to be the benchmark producer in the Languedoc. The 2009 'Las Flors de la Peira' is just one reason for earning this reputation. This wine is big and densely packed, yet graceful. Boasting beautiful notes of dark cherry reduction, damson plum, rich chocolate, spices, cloves, fresh floral and even minerals come through as well. Full-bodied, balanced, concentrated and focused with gorgeous silky and polished tannins that take hold and caress every inch of your palate. The supple finish is long and mouth-coating, dosing out loads of dark fruits and chocolate. If approaching this now, you must allow generous breathing time. This is still at a young stage and it will only continue to improve and gain even more complexities with time. There is no doubt this is top-notch and very serious, not only in the Languedoc but in the world and should be highly sought after by all wine enthusiasts. The blend of 40% Grenache, 40% Syrah and 20% Mourvedre make up this truly great wine. (Drink 2014-2027) - July, 2012 (JD)
