Vignoble de la Contrie 2020 – Saint Nicolas de Bourgueil

The wine has a ruby color of medium intensity. The nose is bright, fragrant and gourmand. It expresses pure fruity aromas (red cherry, wild strawberry, raspberry, a touch of crushed blackcurrant and wild blackberry), combined with a hint of violet, cut grass and mint syrup in the background. The palate is juicy and silky, with slightly dry, but fine tannins. We find flavors of wild strawberry, crushed raspberry, tart red cherry, blackcurrant and a tannic touch of wild plum, combined with notes of violet, blackcurrant leaf and hay on the finish. The acidity is lively, salivating and balances well the dry side of the tannins, which is expressed at the end of the palate. Good persistence on the fruit and a slight bitterness.
