Château Larose Perganson

A sophisticated and polished Medoc, displaying a deep garnet color and aromas of blackcurrant, cedar, and pencil shavings. The palate is "supple yet structured," with silky tannins and a refreshing acidity that carries the dark fruit through to a long, mineral-flecked finish.

Ideal for The Architect

Your palate is a "friction-seeker." You have a very high threshold for tannins, meaning you don't feel dryness as "harsh" - you feel it as "satisfying grip." Without that structural skeleton, wine feels like juice to you. You also enjoy Retro nasal Bitterness - the savoury, dark notes found in espresso and cacao. You don't want the wine to disappear; you want it to leave a physical footprint on your tongue for 60+ seconds (Length).
