Note di degustazione
A restrained and minerally wine with flint, tuberose and mint aromas, plus multilayered citrus fruit and pistachio toastiness. Full-bodied with weight and an elegant, silky texture. Slightly toasty and a bit buttery, with a super-polished and woven finish that’s incredibly savory. From biodynamically grown grapes. Still youthful due to the oak, yet ready to drink.

Forget aromatic Sauvignon, the 2020 Pur Sang is clear, pure and restrained. An evident nutty note to this is likely derived from the 20-25% new oak employed for all the Dagueneau cuvées. The oak combines with ripe, white stone fruit and almond meal, which lingers on the taut, grippy finish, and reveals that this wine is still in its infancy.
The 2020 Pur Sang is a compact and focused style with excellent concentration. It is as pure as glacial water. While tender and charming at first, it offers excellent precision, which is not a word you'd normally associate with the warm 2020 season. There is fine tension and structure with an integrated use of nutty oak combining with a fresh nectarine fragrance on the finish. Tasted as a tank sample, this is a 3-ha vineyard that's about 5km away from Dagueneau HQ, sitting on flint over a bedrock of chalk.
