Chateau Sainte Eulalie Description
Intense garnet color. Dark fruit aromas with toasty notes. Ample palate, full and soft, ripe tannins, layered palate. Ripe, lingering finish. A rich and fleshy wine with an elegant, claretlike balance.
Jeb Dunnuck: 94 Points
A wine of terroir and contrasts, the 2021 Minervois La Livinière La Cantilène is a blend of 55% Syrah, 30% Carignan, and 15% Grenache Noir. Aged mainly in oak barrels and 25% in concrete vats, its sun-kissed character has been beautifully refined and balanced. The aromas are woven around black fruits, balsamic and menthol notes, a hint of caramel, fresh green pepper berries, a touch of cigar, and bay leaf. The enveloping freshness is further enhanced by fine, tight-knit tannins. Balanced, harmonious and age-worthy, the long, dense, and spicy finish is a sign of youth.
