discovery

Complex and unexpected, the nose of the 2019 L'Empreinte de Saint-Mont Red reveals aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, and other dark fruits, with spicy notes. Smooth and elegant on the palate, it is well-structured and round, with well-integrated tannins and a peppery finish. Pair it with duck breast in blackcurrant cream sauce!

Review by Mr. FREDERIC B. Posted on 11/01/2024

A challenging wine—perhaps tasted too early! But its deep color, nose of black fruit, and austere palate do not invite contemplation.
