Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
BEAUMIRAIL |
Very deep intense purple colour. Attractive, spicy, ripe plum-cherry cassis nose with some gentle cedary notes. Dry, medium bodied, quite well structured, harmonious, slightly spicy, bright, ripe, red and black cherry flavours with a lingering, fairly high acid sandalwood-tinged finish. Quite ready to drink. This very tasty blend of 70% Grenache Noir, 20% Syrah and 10% Mourvedre has 15% alcohol and 5 g/L residual sugar. |

TASTING NOTE: Bright ruby-red. Lively dark berry and cherry aromas are complemented by hints of candied flowers and allspice. Seamless and broad on the palate, offering sweet raspberry, cherry and succulent herb flavors underscored by a smoky mineral flourish. Smoothly blends power and finesse and finishes long and floral, with supple tannins building slowly. Drinking window: 2020-2025. Score - 90 (Josh Raynolds, vinous.com, Nov. 2018) |
