Tasting commentary
The Château Desmirail 2022 vintage reveals a beautiful garnet-red intensity, with light violet highlights. It offers great aromatic complexity, with notes of black fruits such as blackberries and morello cherries with note as well as woody, vanilla, dark chocolate and spicy notes. This wine also has a floral character. On the palate, black fruit aromas are intense and the balance between smooth tanins and acidity enhances its elegance. This wine is characterized by roudness, length and a spicy, roasted coffee finish.
