By \"Tardive,\" Alain Coudert implies that one should wait for this wine to mature, in this case probably about 5 to 7 years, although those unable to wait will certainly enjoy drinking it now. In the cavalcade of great Cuvee Tardives, the 2024 weighs in with moderate alcohol and is brighter and more balanced than the monumental 2023. In other words, it's an excellent wine that should be in the cellar of any lover of Beaujolais from a more \"old-fashioned\" vintage. The wine is a deep red\/black color and shows fresh, high-toned aromas of blackberry liqueur, strawberry, violets, brown spice, licorice and grilled meats - really quite lovely. The palate is framed in stone and mineral flavors with firm acidity, with earthy dark fruits and an almost bitter finish of saline minerals and black fruits. This is a lovely Tardive, very expressive of the manganese-rich soils and a lovely combination of beautiful floral\/fruit aromas and a dark mineral-laden palate. Wait a few years years, drink until 2035?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"David Bowler Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50632252260577,"sku":"37298","price":30.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0602\/3790\/6145\/files\/Coudert-10-tardive.jpg?v=1745418780","url":"https:\/\/chambersstwines.com\/products\/coudert-2024-fleurie-clos-de-la-roilette-cuvee-tardive","provider":"Chambers Street Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
