Stéphane Aviron Vieilles Vignes Julienas 2022

This is a very ripe, supple and smooth gamay from a 'cru' village known to make somewhat heartier examples. The nose is soft but fragrant and seductive with strawberry/raspberry compote, red rose and subtle earth. It is medium bodied, elegant and almost glossy smooth with very fine tannin. The length is very good to excellent. Delicious. Chill lightly. Tasted Feb 2025 Score - 92.
