Serpent a Plumes 2023 Producer|AmeztoiA joyful and immediately satisfying Malbec Merlot blend, this is the juiciest of La Calmettes wines. Immediate and enticing, bursting with ripe red fruits and spice underpinned with a satisfying edge of graphite and intense minerality. 2023 was an exceptional vintage for Maya and Nicholas, the resulting wine is beautifully silky and ripe. In a region otherwise known for muscular, tannic, over baked reds, Serpent A Plumes goes against the grain,
with a delicately aromatic nose with some aniseed-like undertones
lightly gripping tannic structure
Northern Spanish declassified vineyards farmed with biodynamic practises
brisk and generous with lemon and apple notes aplenty from the white grapes while the Mandó supplies all the tart red berry & sour cherry notes
The cooler nights bring a freshness and perfume to the wine that reflects this outlying terroir
fresh and bright with cherry kirsch flavours
Petit Prince is a stunning new La Tangente cuvée that pushes the idea of multiple terroirs further
green apples and ripe pears
Coche Discoteca ‘Car Disco’
all wrapped up with a palate cleansing streak of acidity
The most boldly-structured of the Grange du Nord wines
On the palate there is tension and minerality sitting in perfect balance with ripe fruits
