Lorgeril Les Pierres Saint-Chinian 2018

Displaying a deep garnet hue, Lorgeril Les Pierres Saint-Chinian opens with an aromatic bouquet of ripe blackcurrant, crushed violets, and a hint of garrigue, characteristic of its Languedoc terroir. On the palate, it reveals a robust structure with fine-grained tannins and a vibrant acidity that frames the wine's core of dark plum and black cherry flavors. Subtle notes of black olive and a whisper of peppercorn add complexity, leading to a long, mineral-driven finish. This wine exemplifies the balance and intensity typical of Saint-Chinian, offering both immediate appeal and potential for further development.
