Tasting Notes

The Larmande 2010 needs to show a little more energy and animation on the nose. It is comparatively introverted with broody tertiary black fruit and a hint of black truffle. The palate is medium-bodied with a sweet entry and here, there is fine balance and tension. The finish partly compensates for the aromatics with a delicate touch of spice on the finish. Fine.

Score: 89

Tasted at the Union de Grand Cru in London. The Larmande 2010 needs to show a little more energy and animation on the nose. It is comparatively introverted with broody tertiary black fruit and a hint of black truffle. The palate is medium-bodied with a sweet entry and here, there is fine balance and tension. The finish partly compensates for the aromatics with a delicate touch of spice on the finish. Fine. Tasted November 2012.

Attractive nose with animal notes, mint and dark fruit. Wonderful freshness at the beginning of the palate and builds up with a huge structure and multilayered texture. Long and very classy. Great potential but needs a couple of years to soften up the tannins. Best wine for a long time. Try after 2016.

Very dark crimson. There is freshness on the nose. Earl Grey tea aromas. One of the lighter St-Émilions but graceful and well balanced. Very racy. Almost angular on the finish but distinctive. Not for those who seek weight!
