Description
Thunevin-Calvet “Les Dentelles” 2019 from the Côtes-du-Roussillon Villages. NEW TO TOB.
50% Grenache, 30% Shiraz, and the balance is Carignan. 17 months barrel and vat maturation.
While the entry level wine (see above) was simple carefree hedonism, “Les Dentelles” offers a similar atomic fruit hit but with layers of soul beneath that, darker and deeper, toned down by the barrel maturation, “complexified”, spicier with more earth and wood, with an even more chuggable palate but possessing more guts and less heat, finishing off dry and firm thanks to a fine veil of tannin.
