Marsannay, Rouge, Frére et Soeurs, 2019

There is some sinew and nerve to this, as well as stone and mineral-flecked hedgerow berry, damson, a touch of fruit liqueur and a fresher raspberry note. Good depth and interest here. A nicely extended if not massive finish, showing some good layered minerality and tension. Along with the Fixin, this ages for less time in oak barriques than the other Meo Camuzet wines, between a maximum of 10 to 12 months, and there is very little new oak employed, so as to preserve the charming fruity freshness of the wine.
