THE VINTAGE
TASTING NOTES
Medium ruby red color with bluish reflections. Open and pleasant nose of fresh red fruit jam (raspberry and redcurrant) and notes of sweet liquorice. Delicately spicy. The palate is full-bodied and generous, with fat and then tension. Nice volume of midpalate. The tannins are dense and fine, chiseled, and carry the wine on the finish. We find the same aromatic register of the nose. A tasty and elegant wine.
In 2019, the climate was very dry and hot during the growing season. As a result, the harvest began very early with grapes showing excellent health, thick skins and intense colors. The red wines show aromas of ripe fruit, raspberries with a slight touch of mint and present a beautiful minerality. On the palate, the tannins are elegant and well concentrated. This vintage shows signs of a long aging potential.
