Domaine Boisson, Cairanne (Rhône Valley, France) 2015

Jul 5, 2017

By Michael Franz

Very dark and ripe, this is a kick-down-the-door wine, rather than a reticent charmer.  The fruit is very open and expressive, and if there were not a bit of alcoholic heat showing in the finish, it would have earned an even higher score.  Some of this is being sold in the 2010 and 2012 vintages at various locations in the USA, so we can hope that the 2015 will also appear on our shores.
