The 2022 vintage in Entre-deux-Mers
Vintage benchmark: 88/100 (appellation benchmark, not a score for this wine)
Vintage character: The drought brought quick ripening: rich, ripe whites, carried by fruit more than by acidity.
Overall reading of the year’s season across Entre-deux-Mers. An estate can depart from it sharply, in frost or hail years, where two neighbours did not make the same vintage. What this particular wine actually gave is on its technical sheet and in the scores above.
Tasting
Adorned with a beautiful garnet color as well as a deep shine. The powerful nose delivers a bouquet of crunchy red fruits, we easily find aromas of blackcurrant and blackberries enhanced with spicy notes. The palate follows the same aromatic lineage, round, generous, ample and balanced, carried by tasty tannins promising a bright future.
