crisp acidity and fine precision toward the finish

My favorite wines in this tasting were the wines from the 1990s Riservas

together with the Bonnes Mares

It's fully mature but by no means on its last legs

and this includes the Clos Sorbès

Baron Arques, Limoux Rouge Brut Zero crisp acidity and fine precisionEvoking aromas of licorice, oak, spices, earth and dark berries mingled with vanilla pod, the 2022 Limoux from Domaine de Baronarques possesses a medium to full bodied, concentrated and dense palate with structured tannins, segueing into a long, penetrating and licorice inflected finish. Well crafted and balanced, this is a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon, though the exact proportions remain unknown.
