2017 Union de Vignerons de L'Ile de Beauté Prestige du President

I loved the 2017 Prestige du Président. This elegant, medium-bodied beauty has a wealth of minerality as well as perfumed notes of red cherries, strawberries, and crushed rock-like nuances. Sweetly fruited and balanced, it’s outstanding stuff. This cuvée is a mix of Niellucciu and Syrah, all from limestone soils, that spent 18 months in demi-muids.
