Brutal
Es d’Aqui (Limoux)
Carignan • 2019
From old vines planted on schist in Faugeres. As should be the spirit with every Brutal cuvee, this is a one-off style of vinification where the grapes were macerated in whole bunches for 9 months. After pressing the wine was rested in cuve for 3 months and then bottled. A dense and brooding wine that has settled into itself magnificently. A lovely balance between tension and maturity which is drinking beautifully now but has the structure to age further.
