Domaine Félix & Fils Cuvée Saint-Féréol 2023 – Irancy

The wine has a pale ruby color. The nose is fruity, gourmand and offers a certain concentration and a delicate sweet hint in its fruity material. It expresses pronounced cherry aromas (morello cherry, red cherry), complemented by notes of wild strawberry and crushed raspberry. After aeration, we find floral aromas (rose, peony, violet), as well as a hint of liquorice and fresh mint. The palate is gourmand and juicy, and offers an enveloping fruity material, quite concentrated, but airy. It expresses the flavors of roasted red cherry, morello cherry, sweet wild strawberry and crushed raspberry, associated with notes of peony, violet, liquorice and mint, as well as a fine touch of toasted hazelnut that appears on the persistence. Tannins are a little rough, but balanced by a salivating acidity. Good flavor persistence, with notes of red cherry and a good toasted bitterness.
