Bergerie du Capucin - Larmanela 2012
1*Étoile
Hachette
90/100
Robert Parker
"A notch above, Larmanela 2012 starts off reduced but opens up nicely with time. Rich and full-bodied, with lots of black fruit, meaty notes, chocolate, crushed rock, and truffle, this is a wine with supple, round tannins. It is a seductive wine. (Wine Advocate 2015 - Robert Parker)

About wine:
A beautifully crafted vintage. Just wait a little while for the pepper and licorice notes, which are already noticeable, to overpower the aging notes.
