Nose
Aromas of crisp red fruit, redcurrant, strawberry and blackcurrant buds offer freshness and fruitiness in equal measure.
Palate
A touch of white pepper counterbalances the fruit. In the mouth, the tension is pronounced. This vintage requires a little patience or aeration before tasting.
Growing Conditions
A mild winter, an early bud-break, a 'British' spring and then a dry summer and classic 'Indian Summer' autumn period all helped to enhance the quality of our berries. In a sentence, these were the Fieuzal 2019 vintage conditions.
Winemaking
L’Abeille red is majority Merlot, therefore delicately smooth whilst being juicy, fruity, and full of character.
Appearance
This Abeille has a very intense dark red hue with bright highlights.
