Cent Visages Touraine Côt
2016 vintage. Stemmy, fragrant, floral, much lighter than Cahors or any Argentine example. Candied violet, crabapple, blackberry, elderberry, incense, anise, tarragon, Thai basil. Really fun, especially with a little chill.

Jul 26th, 2019Amazing #Malbec. This #wine never really takes off with bright fruits, but rather hits the palate with mid level black fruit and the structure persists. Light blue flowers and subtle black pepper dominate the nose. A total food wine as the structure, spice and acidity all hit the tongue on the side and finish singular, bitter and slightly vegetal from a brief cherry and jalepeno component.
