"A delicately fragrant expression of Cabernet Franc. There's a charming, silky start to the 2019 Les Poyeux , sitting pretty in the mouth. There's definite ripeness of fruit with a fondant-like softness on the mid-palate providing flesh, yet this wine remains light on its feet, focused and fresh. Aromatically lifted with a touch of balsamic, red cherry, blackberry, spice and black olive. The tannins have a tight pinch on the finish, perhaps caused by the year's drought or it may need more time...We'll see. Drink 2026-2040 ."
About the Producer:
"One collector described an appointment at Clos Rougeard as “harder to get than an audience with the Pope,” and it goes without saying at this point that they are considered the greatest expressions of the Cabernet Franc grape made anywhere in the world. Finessed, perfumed, incredibly ageworthy…these wines have it all.
While intense and unabashedly tannic in their youth, the structure of the wines at Clos Rougeard allows them to go the distance, which Nadi and Charly enthusiastically cellar for future generations to enjoy."
