Laurent & Romain Are 2018 in Brampton, ON

Inky dark core and a youthful purple hue. Fragrant and pure aromas of crushed black currant, plum, fine leather, tobacco, mild oak and graphite. The palate shows a broad structure with plenty of volume, a fresh backbone of acidity with youthful but polished tannin adding lift and length, savoury dark fruit with cassis, sage and tobacco flavours leading to a long muscular finish. Score - 93. (Andreas Larsson, andreas-larsson.com, July 20, 2023) Inky dark core and a youthful purple hue.
