Manu, Touraine 'Côt' 2023 normal creamy palate

creamy palate

Somehow simultaneously straightforward yet complex

Put glasses on while you drink it

What a ride

In the mouth there's a bit of roundness and exotic citric volume

Manu, Touraine 'Côt' 2023 normal creamy palatePlace: Loire, France Grape: Malbec Vibe: Tasty Ok, you've got me. Yes, Ct is actually Malbec. Fear not, this is actually good! Very good. It's not overworked, over extracted or over the top. You see in the Loire freshness is the name of the game. They managed to show the grape at its most vibrant. Juicy blackberry fruit, smooth tannin, bright acidity. There is a whole lot to like here. Straight into my midweek rotation. ABV: 13%
