Domaine de Barroubio - Muscat de Saint Jean de Minervois Cuvée Bleue 2015 (liquoreux)
3*Coup de Coeur
Hachette
“The Cuvée Bleue bears the unmistakable Barroubio signature in its complexity and the delicacy of its aromas: it is an extraordinary garden with heady notes of rose, hawthorn, and linden. Perfect balance, smoothness, and elegance; soft, graceful lines; intensity and refinement; hints of apricot sorbet enlivened by a touch of mint: a rare harmony.” (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2018)
