2021 Domaine de Baronarques, Rouge, Limoux, Languedoc

Description

The 2021 Baronarques Rouge is wonderful, in my opinion the best yet, and I have tasted most vintages over the last 7 years or so. The nose is incredibly complex, owing Bordeaux varietals along with some Syrah, and shows lots of ripe hedgerow fruit, cassis, Mediterranean herbs, black pepper and dried violets. The palate is rich and bold but also has a certain elegance. Firm tannins and a core of delicious ripe fruit really add a sense of class. I expect the increasing age of the wines is playing its part now, as the wine is showing fantastic concentration. Incredibly complex and long palate, lots of bold cherry and blackberry, licorice and spice. Long finish.
