Notes | |||
"Situated on the gently rolling hills of the deuxième côte, Les Promenards comes from vines planted by his grandfather. Mineral and taught, Les Promenards is fermented by indigenous yeasts in 400L French oak barrels, then aged in stainless steel tanks for 8 months before bottling." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"A dry yet seductively ripe style that's all quince, baked apples and baking spices. Hailing from 50-year-old vines that are farmed organically, and fermented in 400-liter barrels, the 2018 Les Promenards is a full style that is remarkably delicate and pure on the mid-palate. There's lovely acid balance on the finish, which has structured appeal thanks to a chalky tannic grip." —Vinous |
