Domaine la Tour Vielle, Banyuls (Roussillon, France) 2008

Jan 19, 2012

By Gerald D. Boyd

 The 2008 Rimage was aged for three years and has an appealing concentration of fruit and roasted nuts.  The flavors are dense and nicely balanced displaying layers of ripe fruit, a hint of oxidation and 16.5% alcohol.  This is a lovely complex fortified wine with great concentration and finesse.
