Domaine des Tourelles Vieilles Vignes Cinsault 2021 Description
The nose presents an exotic blend of ripe fig, bright red cherry and plum with star anise spice - lifted and pronounced. On the palate, beautifully ripe red fruit characters meld with fig and spice notes, while perfectly balanced acidity and tannin structure support the generous flavours and deliver a pure, clean finish.
This wine demonstrates remarkable ageing potential. The refined tannin framework and natural acidity provide the backbone necessary for graceful development over the coming years. The interplay between these structural elements suggests the wine will evolve beautifully in bottle, allowing secondary flavours to emerge and integrate with the primary fruit characteristics. Sourced from mature vines in the Bekaa Valley, the depth and complexity of the old-vine fruit foundation indicates this expression will gain nuance and sophistication with time, rewarding patient cellaring.
Serve slightly chilled to fully appreciate the aromatic complexity and layered flavours. This wine's structure makes it equally compelling now or laid down for future enjoyment.
Think Mediterranean cuisine - marinated meats, grilled vegetables. BBQs.
