I know "bouche" is "palate" but I'm not sure how to phrase "première bouche".
Assemblage de Sangiovese (80%), Syrah (10%) et Merlot (10%). Couleur d’un rubis intense et profond. Notes de framboise sur fond délicatement fumé. Première bouche d’une belle pureté de fruit. Noyau généreux et plein. Rétro-olfaction sur des notes d’épices exotiques.

start (in the mouth)
Fruity start in the mouth, with great purity.
The start is usually in opposition to the finish (hopefully with good "length" in between!).

Rather than your two suggestions, I would prefer,
"Starts in the mouth with good purity of fruit."

: Fruity start, then lots of wood opening up into a sweet centre. www.maltmaniacs.org/ADHD/aultmore.html - 32k sounds lovely!
