Domaine Labranche Laffont Vieilles Vignes Madiran Rouge 2018
From several parcels that total 7.5 acres. One parcel of two acres has vines 150 years old; the others support vines at least 50 years old! Soil is clay-limestone. Farming is certified organic. Hand harvested.
Very dark, deep and dense–this wine underlines the notion that Tannat is a study in density and the exact opposite of modern “spoofilated” wines.
Grapes are de-stemmed and the wine is raised in Bordeaux barrels, roughly 20% of which are new each year. Given several hours of aeration, this Tannat blossoms.
