Delaplane Cellars – Rusticity 2021 – Virginia

Beautiful fruity nose, frank and offers a captivating side, deepness as well as a fine hint of austerity. It reveals notes of blackberry, crushed raspberry and small notes of pulpy red plum associated with touches of tobacco, toasted, discreet almost crushed blueberry hints (in the background), blond tobacco as well as a very discreet hint of smoke and freshly-toasted. The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers juiciness, a tangy frame, tension, energy, a beautiful definition as well as a fine electric side. On the palate this wine expresses notes of pulpy/juicy cherry, pulpy/juicy Quetsche plum and small notes of juicy cassis associated with touches of red berries as well as fine hints of almond. Tannins are sapid and supple. Good length. Beautiful energy and freshness. Good persistence and a subtle mellowness in the background.
