and citrus zest

A slightly more elegant nose features a cool and restrained array of assorted red berries

This is aromatically similar to the Chassagne villages but with more evident citrus influence

As the description suggests the balance isn’t perfect but there is so much underlying material that my score offers the benefit of the doubt that this will better harmonize with a few years of bottle age

Tasted at the Disznoko tasting in London

Numanthia other_regions and citrus zestDark violet. Spicy dark berry aromas are complicated by orange peel, cinnamon and clove. Medium bodied black raspberry and cassis flavors are given an exotic accent by Asian spices and violet pastille. The silky tannins are almost overwhelmed by the wine's spicy fruit. Finishes brisk and long, with an echo of cracked pepper. Josh Raynolds
