BlaBlaBla 2021 has a delicate, fruity nose, with aromas of cherry and blackberry and hints of cream and spice. Round and full-bodied on the palate, it offers plenty of freshness; it is supple and refined, with intense, crisp fruit. An easy-drinking, well-balanced wine with a rich, lingering finish.

Wine rated (2022 guide) 89/100 (2020 vintage)

Rated estate (2022 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or high-quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)

About the estate:

Bergerac, in the far southeast of the appellation: from his organically farmed plots on the limestone plateau and the deep-clay slopes, Julien Auroux looks to the future with confidence. His wines have turned their backs on Bergerac’s past, which sought to imitate Bordeaux reds while neglecting the terroir. He, on the contrary, is committed to wines characterized by minerality, a clear and precise aromatic expression, made with native yeasts, and with almost no added sulfur. He is reviving grape varieties of the past for a return to the future. The lineup draws on the acidity of the soils to create an approachable profile and takes a step up this year.
