Marc Delienne, Fleurie Abbaye Road Size:6x1.5L and overripe Nebbiolo characteristics provideThe 2015 Fleurie Abbaye Road is superb, bursting with scents of creamy black cherries, grilled meat, dried rose petals and wood smoke. On the palate, it's full bodied, layered and complete, with a multidimensional core, considerable concentration and remarkable energy despite its rich, atypically powerful profile. When I first encountered this wine, shortly after release, it showed a touch of volatile acidity that was imperceptible in these bottles.
