| Tasting Notes | Neal Martin: The 2015 L'If is a blend of 80% Merlot and 20%Cabernet Franc this year and it was matured in around 50% new oak.It has a very ravishing and opulent bouquet with macerated smallred cherries, blueberry and a hint of powdered chocolate, probablyfrom the new oak, and that seems to quickly dissipate. The palateis medium-bodied with crisp acidity, a pinch of white pepper,nicely structured and showing great style on the finish. "That'sbloody good," commented Fiona Morrison behind me, and I would notdisagree. In fact, over five to ten minutes, this Saint Emiliongained precision and harmony. This is a strong follow-up to the2014, although let's wait until bottling to see if it is better. |
