Orion Alpha 2023

Anjou | Red | 2023

This wine, crafted from two Cabernet Franc parcels, exemplifies masterful winemaking. The grapes, harvested and destemmed by hand, undergo a gentle maceration of 21 days, promoting a controlled infusion of flavors. Pressing followed by aging in used barrels contributes to developing its unique character. The result is a balanced wine, where finesse and freshness harmoniously combine to offer a refined tasting experience.

Our opinion on the vintage

From the first sip, this wine reveals a captivating nose, mingling roasted red bell pepper and fresh blackcurrant, underpinned by mineral and iron notes. On the palate, it unfolds with surprising roundness and breadth, combining lightness and depth. The texture is silky, leaving a sensation of invigorating freshness that lingers through to the finish. This remarkably pure finish returns to an elegant blackcurrant, enhanced by a peppery touch and hints of sanguine, creating an aromatic profile that is both complex and approachable.
