title: Château d'Aydie 2004 Madiran Laplace Tannat (Madiran)
description: It's certainly a big wine, as befits Madiran, but the tannins are well tamed, and contribute to richness rather than dryness. The texture is rough velvet, a smoothness topped by some tannins. Fruit flavors range from black figs to dark plum skins. It could evolve over 5 years, at least.
variety: Tannat
designation: Madiran Laplace
