Domaine de Ravanès - Cuvée Diogène 2008
Languedoc
Red
Sold individually
Drink or Keep
On the nose, Cuvée Diogène exhales intense aromas of blackcurrant and crème brûlée, followed by spicy and vanilla nuances that add complexity. The palate is hushed and greedy, enveloped in a great suavity dominated by ripe fruit and licorice, backed by a racy structure and polished tannins. A great success!
