Note di degustazione
The 2019 Red Wine Champoux Vineyard is dark and brooding, with an understated bouquet that blends violet florals and lavender with citrus-tinged blackberries. Cool-toned and racy in style, the Champoux excites the palate with peppery red fruits that coast across a core of brisk acidity, while a saline mineral shade adds lovely depth. The 2019 tapers off long and staining, leaving a tart blackberry and licorice tinge over a bed of fine-grained tannins.

Rich and round, the 2019 Champoux Vineyard begins with blackberry skin, dusty red plum and cardamom madeleines with a dusty essence to the nose. Medium to full-bodied, the wine has a firm tannic backbone and succulent acidity with flavors of plum preserves and black cherry across the mid-palate. The delightfully layered and complex wine ends with an oaky, vanilla-tinged, lingering and persistent finish. Set to be released in 2024, this is a stunning wine that will age for two decades or more and will reward those who cellar.
The 2019 Champoux Vineyard checks in as a mix of 54% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc, 17% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 4% Petite Verdot, aged 23 months in 30% new French oak. Its deep purple hue is followed by a gorgeous bouquet of pure cassis and dark cherry fruits as well as spring flowers, spicy oak, and chocolaty herbs. Rich, fleshy, opulent, and full-bodied on the palate, with its Merlot component front and center, it's going to deliver loads of pleasure over the coming 15 years or more.
