2023Fleurie,ChâteaudeFleurie

Sans

In the glass there’s a gentle purple hue to the brim, the core is dark and deep in colour hinting at the concentration to follow.

A swirl of the glass releases enticing, bold aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry with a hint of dark liquorice and spice and when served on the cooler side there’s a slight hint of orchard fruit too.

The palate is also slightly more fruit-forward than the preceding 2021 vintage leading with tart, dark cherry flavour that progresses to more of a dark currant character with delicate notes of cracked black pepper and spice.

The tannins are fine and grip across the palate but are perfectly balanced by a steely crispness which runs through to the finish where notes of sweet cherry and spice linger. Delicious!

Another superb release from the team at Maison Loron, Drink Now �2027+
