The 2012 Château les Maurinières offers a lovely, fresh aromas of ripe cherries and dark plums along with sweet spices, tobacco, spring floral and crushed stones. On the palate this is nicely balanced and well structured, with a gorgeous soft, velvety texture which carries on all the way through the long, spice-tinged finish. Today this is already showing some lovely characteristics and I expect it to continue to show well over the next few years. (Best 2016-2022) - June, 2016 (JD)
