Michet clone

the acidity is good

The broad finish features dusty tannins and lovely floral persistence

It is just a case of waiting for the nose to open because the palate really shows the potential here

I suspect one will emerge from the different lots of Les Bessards that I tasted as 2009 is certainly a year where enough wine can be culled out for the Cathelin without sacrificing the monumental quality of the regular Hermitage

Joseph Perrier, Josephine Size:6x750ml Michet cloneThe 2008 Cuve Josphine constitutes only the ninth edition of this iconic cuve, coming after 1982, 1985, 1989, 1990, 1995, 1998, 2002 and 2004. It has a powerful aromatic intensity with white flowers, orchard fruit, mint and white pepper, while the dense, generous yet silky texture is supported by finely judged acidity.
