Abbotts & Delaunay
Abbotts & Delaunay Les Fleurs Sauvages Mourvèdre 2021
Details
A case of Old World meets New World in this exceptional joint venture between Australian winemaker Nerida Abbott and Laurent Delaunay from Burgundy. Drawn to the diverse terroirs of the Languedoc-Roussillon region, they have worked tirelessly to craft the finest expressions this region has to offer. Les Fleurs Sauvages (meaning "wildflowers") is a standout, made from Mourvèdre grapes sourced from select parcels in Pays d’Oc, in the South of France.
The nose is slightly restrained at first, but with a swirl, the bouquet unfolds beautifully. Breathe deeply, and you'll uncover layers of red and black liquorice, black plums, green coffee beans, wild raspberries, complemented by notes of cedar and brown spices.
Sam Kim | 94 Points - "Rich dark fruit intensity leads the way with smoked game and toasted spice nuances. It's wonderfully weighted in the mouth, offering terrific fruit power combined with fleshy texture and layers of fine tannins. It's robust and sturdy with a persistent, engaging finish."
13% ABV.
