Chevalier Delaude Languedoc 2022

A really delicious red from the Languedoc region, from a highly regarded vintage. This is inky dark maroon in colour. The nose gives us aromas of dried herbs, truffles, spices, roast meats, mulberries and dark berries. Very much an evocative nose. The palate has focus, balance and length, but at the moment, dominated by the abundant tannins, giving quite a firm grip. The palate also sees the emergence of more chocolatey flavours. Terrific drinking and should remain so for the next six to eight years.
