Despite that careful aromatic build up

(aged for nine-and-a-half years in American oak barrels and then held in bottle for at least nine years before release) Limpid

Is this the best vintage since 1990 or perhaps 1978

Since Clos des Goisses is already arguably Champagne's longest-lived wine

Very rich and thick

Thunevin Calvet, Trois Marie Size:6x750ml Despite that careful aromatic buildFrom a vintage that saw a fair bit of rain at the end of the season, the 2015 Ctes Du Roussillon Villages Les Trois Marie (65% Grenache and 35% Syrah) has lots of plum, tobacco, iron, and peppery herb like notes as well as a concentrated, powerful style on the palate. This is a ripe, textured, straight up sexy Roussillon with no hard edges and a great, great finish. It has at least another decade of prime drinking ahead of it.
