Community Tasting Note

La Cave d'Argent Likes this wine:

Wednesday, September 6, 2023 - From a bottle that had been decanted through a Vinturi aerator three hours prior, this wine was subsequently sampled over the ensuing two hours (during which time the aromatic and flavor profiles remained stable). It is a deep garnet blend of 70% Grenache, 15% Syrah and 15% Mourvèdre that serves up an intense array of dark bramble fruits, Morello cherries, orange zest, Provençal herbs, mulling spices and loamy earth. Medium-bodied, low-to-medium in acidity and with well-integrated alcohol (despite being listed as a lofty 15.5%), it wraps its flavors with midweight, silky-textured tannins and a modicum of oak. Dense in the middle and lengthy on the back end, this is a Châteauneuf that has no rough edges. It should be at its best throughout the remainder of this decade. Drink now-2030.
