Note di degustazione
Almost all Merlot, the 2019 Château Franc Mayne is a ripe, beautifully textured 2019 that does incredibly well in the vintage. Giving up lots of ripe black fruits, tobacco leaf, chocolate, and floral notes, it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, the vintage’s pure, elegant texture, building tannins, and plenty of classic chalky minerality on the finish. It's beautifully done. This estate has played on a different level starting in 2018, and these wines deserve your attention!

The 2019 Franc-Mayne is supple and charming, wafting from the glass with aromas of sweet cherry and berry fruit mingled with hints of cocoa nib, warm spices and vanilla pod. Medium to full-bodied, broad and velvety, with ripe tannins and succulent acids, it's a generous, polished wine that will drink well with minimal bottle age. From a site next to Beau-Séjour Bécot that spans the limestone plateau, the slope and sandy clay below, it's 100% Merlot, but Cabernet Franc has been replanted and will soon contribute to the assemblage.
The 2019 Franc Mayne has quite a rich nose, but unlike some less successful wines this vintage, it manages to retain sufficient freshness and delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, tarry red berry fruit and a finely proportioned, persistent finish. This may improve further in bottle.
