tasting of clos rougeard 2014 les poyeux

Garnet-red colour with brick-red highlights.

A deep nose of black cherry and red fruits, intertwined with notes of pepper, damp forest floor, fresh earth, and a subtle hint of menthol and floral aromas.
The palate is broad and precise, carried by silky, lingering tannins, a dense texture, remarkable freshness, and great finesse.
Produced from sandy soils, this outstanding age-worthy wine is built for long-term cellaring, with an ideal drinking window of 10 to 20 years.
An exceptional pairing with roasted pigeon, mushrooms, and caramelised onions.

Best regards,
