Darroze 1988 Lahitte (UB, B) GBA 47.5% 200ml heirloom lanolin and white stone fruits

lanolin and white stone fruits just ripe

gingerbread and an imperceptible hint of flowers

the sweet notes of dried fruit

the elegantly built palate is decorated with densely structured red to dark cherry and strawberry fruits which are underpinned by rugged yet finely balanced tannins and energetic acidity

Darroze 1988 Lahitte (UB, B) GBA 47.5% 200ml heirloom lanolin and white stone fruitsNice golden colour with brown tints. The nose is fruity, with orange peels, dry apricots, quince jam, vanilla, and cinnamon. The palate is nice and balanced, with fruity notes again, and the finish is very spicy (pepper, cloves). It's very long.
