Domaine Haut-Lirou - Esprit - Rouge - 2019

In its early youth and before time changes its color, Esprit Rouge has a deep garnet color with purple reflections. The nose, powerful and complex, plunges the tasterer into a whirlwind of delicious sensations. It opens with aromas of ripe, jammy black fruits, then evolves on empyreumatic notes with a strong dominant of dark chocolate, before finally revealing a spicy touch of cedar wood. The mouth is full and ample; fleshy and warm, the Esprit is one of those wines that are said to have a chewy texture. Intense but harmonious, opulent and generous, its structure reveals an ageing potential of 5 to 10 years. Once the initial fleshiness of the mouth is consumed, with its greedy sweetness, the roasted aromas come back in force; one then has the clear impression of biting into a cocoa bean. The woodiness and tannins blend perfectly with the fruitiness of the Syrah and Grenache, while the Mourvèdre brings its characteristic peppery and spicy touch. It is drunk with emotions that we count the many caudalies of the Spirit, before irremediably wanting to dive back into its tasting.

The word of the Winemaker, Jean-Pierre Rambier Rambier :

The Spirit of a Family... A powerful and generous wine, pure expression of the Pic Saint-Loup terroir...
