Domaine des Tourelles Vieilles Vignes Cinsault 2021

LebanonThis cinsault comes from dry farmed 50+ year old vines planted in Western Bekaa at 1050m elevation. It shows a combination of dried red cherry and raspberry, with dried rose petals, savoury spices, and a sapid, baked clay-like minerality. There's a rustic charm here, while still transparently speaking to place with a beautiful purity of fruit. This was aged in neutral French barriques for 8 months prior to bottling.Tasted: 05 June 2024Tasted by: Prices:
