The nose offers dark red berry and cassis enhanced by baking spice and charcuterie notes. These attributes carry over onto the balanced, well-textured palate along with hints of calamata olives and dark raspberry. - D&M TASTING NOTES
CRITICAL ACCLAIM:
“Notes of Mediterranean herbs, spices, dark berries, mulberries and flowers preface the 2023 Minervois Les Fontanilles, a medium to full-bodied, dense and layered wine framed by elegant, sweet tannins, culminating in a long, spicy and mineral finish. This is a classic in the making.” - 92 PTS, WINE ADVOCATE
