Château Les Croisille Calcaire 2021

Made from grapes grown at 250-300m of altitude on limestone soils, this 100% Malbec is aged in 225 litre old wooden barrels for 18 months. No angular woody tastes here - the gentle interplay of the juice with the air results in a wine full of freshness and complexity, with fine tannins. The aim is finesse, and behind the silky mouthfeel there is blackcurrant and blackberry fruit in abundance. Gorgeous stuff, with a beautiful long finish.
