Château La Serre 2021

Gorgeous deep perfumed nose, full of ripe red and black fruits, a lovely cranberry tang. Enticingly high acidity here, really so bright on the initial impact settling to reveal a chalky redcurrant, blackberry and plum centre with such fine and integrated tannins. Smooth and sleek, this has a gently round body with a delicate and easy-drinking appeal and soft florality that I love. Super-fresh and vibrant, the acidity is so perfectly judged with the bramble fruits and lifted, cooling, minty finish. A beautiful glass of wine. Could easily drink this soon. Succulent and supple, this is refined and just easy to like. Drinking Window: 2024-2036. Score – 92. (Georgina Hindle, decanter.com)
