Olivier other_regions_australia is offering a fine balance

is offering a fine balance of concentrated fruit and mature savoriness

while the fruit retains some freshness

allowing those provocative mineral nuances to shine through

nutty nose of baked apricots

serious and powerful yet the dense tannins are relatively refined

Olivier other_regions_australia is offering a fine balanceAttractive notes of red and black currants, green tobacco, truffle, cedar, and smoked herbs emerge from the 2009 Chteau Olivier, a wine from the deep, gravelly soils of the Graves region of Bordeaux. With medium bodied richness, a silky, evolved, endearing texture, still present tannins, and solid length, this charming, balanced, satisfying Bordeaux should be drunk over the coming decade.
