Vinfolio Tasting Note, Jun 2020
Savoury, light vegetal notes with sweet cassis aroma. Succulent juicy detailed tannins beautifully interweave with fleshy red bramble and blackberry fruit. There is freshness but generosity of fruit too and a touch of austerity.

Produced by Denis Darantou and family of Château L’Eglise-Clinet, this is a blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc. Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2019 La Chenade has a little reduction to begin, soon breaking through to reveal notes of raspberry pie, baked plums and boysenberries with hints of dusty soil, charcoal and wild sage. Medium-bodied, the palate is juicy and refreshing, with a light chewiness to the tannins and bags of freshness, finishing savory.
