Montirius Vignoble Bio-Dynamique Vacqueyras "Le Clos" Rouge AOC 2017 Biodyn, 0,75 L

Vacqueyras may be one of the lesser-known areas of the Rhône, but the wines from Montirius always manage to enchant us.

When we first tasted this wine, someone remarked, "You had me at hello." One whiff of this deep, dark wine and you'll understand why.

Astonishingly, this wine has never seen a wooden barrel, having instead spent a good four years ageing in a concrete tank. The 2017 vintage showcases dark aromas of blackberry and licorice, with a hint of vanilla. On the palate, it's powerful yet refined, with super fine tannins and an unexpected freshness. The high alcohol content is seamlessly integrated, making it remarkably smooth. The finish echoes the initial aromas, lingering beautifully.

This wine tells a fascinating story, combining power with elegance and balance. It's a delight for both lovers of robust wines and those who prefer a more elegant profile.
