Domaine de la Butte
Le Haut de la Butte Bourgueil Cabernet Franc
Bourgueil, Touraine, Loire Valley, France
Wonderfully pungent floral nose, bit like strolling into a garden center, geraniums and fresh soil but then also very rich notes of black cherry compote and dark mint chocolate. There's also something there that reminds me of walking into a big old church, incense and old wooden benches. Lots going on here, may not be to everyone's taste but showing great complexity. Love it!
Completely rounded palate, silly mouthfeel with inky black fruit and a savoury finish, very alive and pure.
