SAINT NICOLAS DE BOURGUEIL Les Malgagnes Domaine Yannick Amirault 2021

Retailer product description

This is aged 80% in oak barrels and 20% in amphorae. This feels bright and more expressive on the nose, with raspberry notes and lightly grilled edges to the dark fruits. The palate is fresh and correct, with a softer wrapping of raspberry and blackcurrant fruits around a more grained and grippy core of tannins, which take the rather softly structured palate to the finish. This feels much more shaped by the barrels, and I prefer the Amphore version today, but will my opinion be reversed in five or ten years time I wonder.
