The palate confirms the beautiful maturity of the grapes with a rich and powerful structure supported by smooth tannins. A classy, elegant wine that honors its appellation! |

The 2021 red Minervois Cazelles L'O de la Vie is rated 93/100 and opens with a very fragrant, fresh, and mature nose, with notes of soot, bacon, and toast on a background of wild blackberries. Still very young, it is already quite open, showing a tasty palate that confirms the good maturity of the harvest with smooth tannins. It is a rich and powerful wine, but one that lacks neither elegance nor class and is a great credit to its appellation. |
