where the fruit is already showing some development Explanation: I would avoid ripe which would usually refer to the effect of the sun on the unfermented grapes. I think the 5 or 6 year context proves that "evolue" is referring to development after the wine has been bottled. Development is the term adopted by the WSET (see link) and other wine tasting organisations, and it is close to the original, but there would be many other ways of expressing the idea - "showing some age", "opened out", some poetic use of adjective "mellow" etc. Reference: http://www.wsetglobal.com/documents/dip_sat_wine2014_v2.pdf |
