    Vignerons du Mont Ventoux (VMV) Carte Noire (Red) 2019 - RecommendedTasted by Elizabeth Gabay MW & Ben Bernheim

    Some sweet, soft, supple oak on the nose alongside ripe buttery blue fruit aromas and slightly jammy fruit. Remarkably fresh on the palate, with that sweetness on the nose translating to a slightly lactic creaminess. Vibrantly juicy blueberry fruit with tangy acidity and vibrant red berry acidity. Tannins are a bit aggressive and drying. Some brambles, black fruit. Concentrated, serious and decadent with a slightly wine-gummy intensity of fruit. Still lots of youthful life ahead of it. Lovely, but not a grand vin.
