Les Strates 2022
Burgundy - Beaujolais -
Tasting notes
Appearance:
Intense ruby colour.
Nose:
Complex and powerful, with pronounced aromas of dark fruit combined with mineral (graphite) and spicy notes.
Palate:
The palate is deep and the tannins mellow. This is a big wine with a fine minerality and a very long, noble finish. In other words, this wine may appear to be massive, but it conceals a real sensitivity and complexity.
Sommelier's advice: Serve between 14-16°C. Ageing potential : 10 to 15 years.
Enjoy with Beef Wellington, Tartare of duck with pink peppercons, Vegetarian lasagna with Mediterranean vegetables.
