Note di degustazione
The 2019 LMV Salon started out slightly closed and reticent yet opened up nicely with air, offering plenty of dark fruits, chocolate, tobacco and leafy herb notes. A blend of 51% Cabernet Sauvignon and 49% Cabernet Franc, this medium to full-bodied, ripe, incredibly charming effort has some coarser tannins yet still brings lots of fruit and texture. Give it a few years.

The 2019 LMV Salon is a powerful, savory wine. A blast of black cherry, herb, spice, leather and mocha flavors hits the palate. In the 2019, the LMV has plenty of brawny tannin, so a few years in bottle seems advisable. I can't wait to see how it ages.
A blend of 51% Cabernet Sauvignon and 49% Cabernet Franc, the deep garnet-purple colored 2019 LMV Salon bursts with bold scents of crème de cassis and blueberry preserves, plus underlying notes of wild sage, camphor and pencil shavings and a waft of raspberry leaves. Medium to full-bodied, the vibrant red berry palate is tightly knit with fine-grained tannins and seamless freshness, finishing long and fragrant.
The 2019 LMV Salon is a dark, powerful wine, yet it retains a super-classic sense of structure. Bright acids and vibrant tannins give the 2019 a real sense of energy that carries through to the finish. Black cherry, smoke, licorice, gravel and incense add striking aromatic top notes. This is such a pretty and deeply expressive wine.
