Conditions météorologiques

2021 was marked by very capricious weather. There was a lot of rain in the spring. An episode of frost at the beginning of April caused major damage. The summer was very mild, with no extreme heat. At the end of August, fine weather set in, with high temperatures during the day and cool nights: ideal conditions for ripening the grapes. These last few weeks were crucial to the success of this vintage.

Dégustation

A brilliant cherry-red colour with silver highlights.
The nose is particularly pleasant and intense. It offers a wide range of fruit notes, from fresh red fruit (redcurrant) to blackcurrant-type berries. The whole is very gourmet. A discreet woodiness adds an extra touch of elegance to this wine.
On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, with discreet, well-melted tannins. A touch of acidity keeps it fresh throughout. The finish is soft and gives a lovely sparkle to this wine, which can be enjoyed now to appreciate all its qualities.
