Rivesaltes, Domaine St Michel 1964

Tasting Notes

A bit more Grenache Noir than the other VDNs from this producer.
Darker amber than some. Very sweet and almost porty. A hint of violet cachous/sweet shop (candy store). A little heavier than most. (JR)

The 1964 has a rich iron note alongside sweet, seductive dried fruit. There is a savoury depth of nutmeg, incense and clove here and a rancio nuttiness too. High acid cuts through silky sweetness on the palate, with an almost Madeira like lipsmacking freshness. There is a light grip, layers of roasted nuts and dried fruit at the core. Long, fine and tangy on the finish.
