drinkable feel

and once finished the wine is left on lees

It has aromas of fruit and spices and an excellent structure

subtle licorice notes

A lively acidity accents the ripe fruit flavors and carries the wine into a crisp finish

Flower stems as well

But after our first three vintages

with supple waves of cassis and red currant flecked with a lot of spice and singed garrigue

It comes mostly from old vines planted between the 1950s and 1960s on hillsides with clay and decomposed granite soils

but with some grit

The 2021 Nobile opens with a minty freshness
