Rivesaltes 1948 Chateau Prieure du Monastir del Camp

Avis professionnels

Robert Parker (93)

The 1948 Rivesaltes from Chateau Prieure du Monastir del Camp has more intensity on the nose compared to the 1948 with prune, fresh dates, camphor and quince - utterly glorious! The palate is very well balanced with superb weight. There is a gentle grip in the mouth, suggesting a little more backbone than the '50, with tangy Seville orange marmalade, cloves, Chinese 5-spice and then it winds down to a gentle finish that urges another sip. Delicious.
