Tuesday, December 5, 2023 - This aged well and came thru in the clutch for me! Medium to medium deep ruby with purple influences still. As with Bordeaux, Loire reds can age for a long time, and while this was not too early, it seems certainly early plateau, and might have developed some pretty awesome tertiaries if left another 5-10 years. Oh well.. was delish tonight anyway. Nose has that ineffable Loire red scent, floral and red fruited, laced with lashings of capsicum and green tobacco. This was absolutely classic, no chance I'd have missed this in a blind tasting. Palate bright and red fruited, broad. Not super dense or full, just right. The perfect bistro/food wine. Wish I had a case....
