l'Homme Poisson 2020

Vallabrix, Gard, France

Impressively powerful rosé of Grenache Noir, Grenache Blanc, Grenache Gris, and Ugni Blanc. Individual percents unknown. The blend sees a presumably long, borderline oxidative aging in very special barrels formerly used for the Puligny Montrachet wines of Fred Cossard. Very limited production of this in 2020 makes it a top wine of the year. Rosé in colour alone, this has heft, with a strong burgundian edge. White burgundy meets sun soaked southern fruit. Highly singular, and concentrated. You won't have ever tasted something like it.
