| Review: |
"The 2018 Bourgueil “Côte 50” from Yannick and Benoît Amirault is a bottling I have never seen from the family domaine previously. It is lovely on both the nose and palate, with the bouquet wafting from the glass in a ripe and complex nose of black cherries, dark berries, cigar ash, dark soil tones, a touch of fancy leather and a smoky topnote. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and complex, with a superb core of fruit, ripe, buried tannins and excellent soil signature on the long and classic finish. This is first class Bourgueil in the making!" |
