La Fauvette Noire 2020

Purple with ruby reflects robe. The first nose offers wild berries aromas. The blackcurrant is clearly dominant, fresh, and appetizing. A few roasted cocoa notes, with hints of liquorice mix in together to create a complex picture.

The first taste is frank, round, with a beautiful tannic structure that allows nice ageing. In the mouth, we find hints of fruity aromatics. They remind us of jellied blackcurrants. The spicy notes (white pepper and pink peppercorns) mixed with the taste of mocha gives it its character and a long finish.

To be kept up to 12 years.

Excellent with a 7 hours’ lamb For the gourmets, pair it with a dark chocolate mousse with red fruits, it is worth a try.
