Winemaker Notes
The 2016 Abélard exhibits a deep, brilliant garnet color. Aromas of sweet cherries are prominent on the nose, accompanied by hints of cinnamon, vanilla, and mocha. On the palate, it opens with a sweet and spicy profile, featuring fine tannins and freshness. The finish is rich and lengthy.
Professional Ratings
93 Wine Spectator
An intriguing late-release red, with some lovely signs of evolution — balsamic, leafy tobacco, forest floor notes — melding seamlessly with juicy plum sauce and mocha accents. A salty beam of acidity brings energy. Elegant, long and caressing, offering plenty of fleshiness and charm. Drinking beautifully now, with life for the cellar. Delicious. Grenache and Syrah. Drink now through 2028. 500 cases made, 100 cases imported.
