The 2021 red Ile de Beauté wine opens with a very ripe nose of pit fruits, with a smoky touch. The full-bodied palate is built around very delicate tannins, with a nice bite, but also with a certain depth. It is a wine that is still very young and has an aging potential of 5 to 8 years. It will pair beautifully with a pork chop or a grilled meat. Rated 92+/100 by our Selection Committee. |
