Domaine de la Cotelleraie, Les Perruches 2021 – Saint Nicolas de Bourgueil

The wine has a deep ruby color. The nose is silky, juicy and ripe. It offers notes of sweet wild strawberry, crushed raspberry, roasted redcherry, fresh bigarreau cherry, morello cherry and blackcurrant, combined with fresh touches of mint, blackcurrant leaf, and a subtle floral bouquet (lily,violet) and a hint of licorice and cut grass in the background. The palate is juicy, airy, with velvety and fine tannins. It expresses flavors of tart red cherry, morello cherry, wild strawberry, raspberry, crushed blueberry and blackcurrant, combined with notes of crushed mint, blackcurrant leaf, violet and lily; as well as a touch of licorice and ground cumin in the background. Good length, with fresh, integrated acidity and good bitterness.
