Domaine des Ardoisières, Améthyste 2020 Australia All that exotic spice isPlace: Savoie, France Grape: Persan + Mondeuse Noire Vibe: Elite Pretty mental drop that drinks like top shelf Cte Rtie. The summer sun combined with an almost vertically steep slope means work stops around lunch as beyond this it becomes physically impossible Truly heroic viticulture. Grown over schist that imparts an unforgettable stony minerality. IMO, up there with some of the finer things coming outta France. ABV: 12%
