Hervé Souhaut elabora en Ardèche, en la margen derecha del Ródano, frente a la colina de l'Hermitage con viejas cepas de gamay. Color granate abierto. Tiene una nariz llamativa, salina, con matices de flor morada, toques de aceitunas negras, peculiares notas de salmón ahumado, monte bajo y cierta mineralidad. En boca la estrada es atractiva, con frutilla crujiente, tanino muy fino, buena acidez, persistente y muy disfrutable.

Still terrific. Everything has settled in more since my last bottle ~6 months ago, wish I had more. More developed with loads of cherries and some strawberry, hint of florals and some herbs (garrigue?), and signature minerality. Acid and tannins seemed a more relaxed, but still provided great structure without seeming harsh, especially sipping after finishing a meal.

Touch of barnyard and reduction at first, followed by the sort of pooey aromatics flowers - peonies? - occasionally emit. By the next day it was glorious - truly violet-scented and peppery, with an edge of blueberries and blackcurrants. The grippy, wound tannins had relaxed and were almost silken, coupled with buckets of fresh (but not harsh) acidity. Lovely wine from a wonderful producer.

This is drinking superb. Perfect fruit and acid balance, easy to drink, lean and savory. I liked it more than the 2018. Terrific.

Very nice gamay. Quite ripe but avoids the surfeiting flavors and feel that really ripe bojos can have. $65 at Seki.
