Autrement La Folie Lucé 2016 – Saumur – Champigny

The wine has a pale ruby color with light garnet reflections. The nose is subtle and complex. It harmoniously combines notes of evolution (wet leaves, undergrowth), sweet spices (clove, nutmeg, a hint of vanilla and cinnamon), roasting (toasted hazelnut)with a refined fruitiness (wild strawberry,roasted raspberry, morello cherry, roasted red cherry, blackcurrant), as well as a floral and herbaceous bouquet (violet, dried rose, dried mint). On the palate, the wine offers gourmandise, delicacy and complexity, as well as firm tannins. We find notes of roasted raspberry, roasted red cherry, wild strawberry, morello cherry, crème de cassis, associated with notes of wet leaves, tobacco, undergrowth, dried flowers (violet, rose) and sweet spices (cloves, nutmeg, cinnamon in the background). Beautiful acidity and length on the palate with a peppery note and a slight bitterness.
