2022 Le Serre Noeve

Tasting notes:

A proud second vin, Le Serre Noeve is Merlot based and aged for about 15 months. After the first 12 months the wine was blended before returning to the barriques for an additional three months and a further six months in the bottle prior to release. Delightful on the nose with red and dark berry fruit alongside notes of pepper and mediterranean herbs. Elegant on the palate with smooth tannins and a refreshing acidity.
