Ruby red in color with orange reflections. An intense bouquet, with tertiary notes of rose, leather, tobacco and emerging notes of violet and tar. The palate is ample and embracing, with prevailing impressions of a soft, persistent long finish.

Lecinquevigne is perfect for braised meat , game, mushrooms and aged cheeses. - Winemaker Notes

"A juicy red with dried strawberry and orange peel, as well as cedar and spice undertones. It’s medium-to full-bodied with firm, fine tannins that are integrated with a flavorful finish. Juicy with lots of flavor. Approachable now, but better in 2024."

"Aromas of ripe wild berry, blue flower and forest floor mingle with a balsamic whiff of camphor. Full-bodied and firmly structured, the palate offers ripe black-skinned berry, raspberry compote, licorice and menthol alongside tightly knit, fine-grained tannins."

"Sweet red cherry and berry flavors are augmented by spice, tar and wild herbs in this lightly chewy red. Firm and finishes on the dry side in the balance, yet with fine length. Best from 2024 through 2038."
