Domaine de Bila-Haut L'esquerda 2018
Detailed info
It's hard to find a safer bet on the market than this cuvée from Chapoutier, says Jeb Dunnuck of the famous «Wine Advocate». L'esquerda – «the fault in the rock» in Catalan – keeps getting better with each harvest. Made from a majority of Syrah to which Grenache is added, only 10% is aged in oak barrels. The rest was aged in concrete vats. This wine offers a compact mouthfeel with flavours of violet, black fruits and spices. A great success!
