Barberry Garden

In the beginning, it was a bit restrained yet charming and sophisticated. Ripe fruits of good quality, grapefruit, baked apple, brioche with cinnamon, ginger, chalk and mushrooms. The aftertaste is long and flavourful. Deliciously saline mouthfeel. After a few hours, it became more intense and seamless. Great structure with salty minerality, good acidity and a long linear finish.

PnP from a 375ml.
N: Mentholated Cherries, clove, some liquorice, oak, soil. Pretty indeed.
P: Light on the palate, hinting that w time and air this would fill out.Cherries and traces of oak, a bit of savory essence on the edges.All the parts are there.Sometimes these half bottles are an irresistible bargain. I’d do this again. — a year ago

It’s ironic how a wine from one of the southern most regions of France is such winter comfort. Yet the leather and tobacco chewy pleasures of Veneur’s Ch. N de P really hits the spot of on a cold winters night. — 2 years ago
