Agnès & Xavier Amirault, Le Fondis 2020 – Saint Nicolas de Bourgueil

The wine has a ruby color of medium intensity. The nose is fragrant, gourmand and offers complexity and depth. It expresses notes of ripe, slightly sweet fruit (juicy blackberry, blackcurrant with a hint of crème de cassis, fresh morello cherry, morello cherry jam, wild strawberry, raspberry coulis).On the second nose, we find notes of dried mint, mint syrup, wild flowers, violet, as well as a fine touch of white pepper, damp leaves and fresh tobacco, as well as a smoky touch of oregano in the background. The palate is velvety, savoury, with lots of fruit. It expresses notes of wild blackberry, fresh morello cherry, crushed blackcurrant, raspberry and wild strawberry, combined with flavors of dried mint, wild flowers, violet, licorice and nutmeg which appears at the end. of mouth. The tannins are fine, but firm and structured. The finish is persistent, tangy and lively. Beautiful freshness on the palate and gourmandise on the nose.
