Wonderful fruit intensity with currants and blueberries on the nose and palate. Full body, firm tannins and a fresh finish. Second wine of Cantemerle. Drink or hold.
Cantemerle is an absolute knockout in 2010 and so it follows with their second wine, Les Allées de Cantemerle. Deep ruby colour and a ripe black fruit nose of blackcurrant and cherry with a hint of sweet spice. The palate is juicy and youthful, with a ripe core of furit textured by firm but yielding tannins. The finish is long and spicy, a perfect balance between sweet and savoury. This has the structure to improve but gives a great early opportunity to try the vintage at a fantastic price point that makes this extremely good value for money.
