l'Archiviste Maury 1987
Tasting Note
'The 1987 Maury L'Archiviste it is a single barrel (demi-muid) of 100% Grenache Noir coming from the co-op, which is known to have kept at least one barrel of every vintage since the mid-seventies. It has a very harmonious bouquet with kirsch, eau-de-vie, menthol and cardamom, nicely defined and not as powerful as you might expect. The palate is rounded and, again, very harmonious with no rough edges. There is a prickle of lemongrass and ginger on the back palate, complemented by fennel, cumin and oregano toward the caressing finish. This is a beautifully crafted Maury courtesy of Philippe Gayral, and it comes highly recommended.'
