Les Bertrand Fleurie Vielles Vignes 2023
$39.99 on 6+ (code: 6saves2)
An other perennial fave, this is textbook Fleurie!!
Our Tasting Note: Give this 30 minutes to open up, once you do you get beautifully layered nose of wild cherry, raspberry and wild flowers, with a hint of spice and granite-mineral undercurrent. On the palate it’s elegantly structured—fine tannins and bright acidity frame vivid red fruit and a subtle stony core. Mid-weight, poised and harmonious, it finishes with refreshing clarity and a lingering mineral echo.
The Fleurie Vieilles Vignes comes from vines that are over 60 years old. This cuvée is aged for longer in used barrels, then held back for an additional year before release. Like everything at the domaine, this wine is naturally vinified without any added yeast or SO2.
