Wine Description
The 2018 'Brune et Blonde de Guigal' reveals a deep ruby hue with garnet highlights. The nose is expressive and layered, offering aromas of ripe blackberry, dark cherry, violet, smoked meat, and subtle oak spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied yet remarkably balanced, featuring flavours of blackcurrant, plum, pepper, and hints of leather, supported by fine-grained tannins and a vibrant acidity. The finish is long and savoury, marked by delicate notes of licorice and minerality.
