Community Tasting Note

tmagsmaken Likes this wine:

Saturday, August 22, 2020 - First bottle of case. Decanted for 2 hours.

Medium ruby in colour.
An expressive nose that is very fruit-forward: red fruit (mainly cherry) is complemented by stewed fruit, fig and dried apricot. There are hints of cinnamon and pepper with some more tertiary notes developing especially leather and tabac but the is wine is still early in its transition. On the palate medium body, medium acidity and alcohol with tannins that are completely integrated. It is striking how easy drinkable this wine is. Complex and elegant rather than bombastic.
Good finish. Overall, excellent fruit forward beaucastel that has plenty in the tank to develop further but is already a treat.
