Domaine L'Ameillaud Côtes-du-Rhône 2018

Full bodied, brazen, and exceptionally smooth. Strong aromas of sloes and raisins are underpinned with subtle but fragrant notes of tobacco and a distinct leather.

The palate is rich with sloes, plums and raisins and balanced finely with leathery tones, sweet pipe tobacco and robust tannins.

The oaking is subtle, the fruit rich but not syrupy, the acidity linear and bold, yet not overbearing, the mouthfeel is pure silk and the finish is exaggerated beyond expectations.
