The 2020 vintage in Saint-Nicolas-de-Bourgueil was marked by historic earliness, with harvest starting in early September under azure skies. The Cabernet Franc grapes delivered extraordinary aromatic intensity, pairing generous fruit with vibrant freshness. The wine reveals a rich violet-tinged robe and seductive notes of ripe raspberry, blueberry, iris, and cocoa bean. The mouthfeel is velvety, fleshy, and broad, supported by harmonious, melted tannins. Rated 4.6 out of 5, this divine vintage offers both immediate drinking pleasure and great cellar potential. Savor with slow-roasted shoulder of lamb.
