Fleurie La Dîme 2022
More vintage
The plot "La Dîme" enjoys a privileged location below the famous "Madone". A magnificent exposure in the high, sloping part of the appellation. The nose is wild, with floral aromas that emerge after aeration. Fresh and elegant on the palate, with great finesse. A slight bitterness at the end of the tasting, always accompanied by great freshness, suggests good ageing potential.
