Fleurie Le Clos Vieilles Vignes Grand'cour (Domaine de la) - Jean-Louis Dutraive 2022

The wine

Le Clos Veilles Vignes is a very accomplished wine, matured for a third of its time in oak barrels, a third in stainless steel and a third in oak casks. Ripe ruit aromas and floral notes develop on the nose. On the palate the initial taste is delicate but then reveals a tannic structure, spiced notes with a good finish.
