2019 Château de Mérande Arbin La Noire The wine bright and livelyMrande's flagship wine from very old vines which throw little fruit. It is an unashamedly powerful expression of Mondeuse where you can see its connection with syrah on full show. Blackberry & blue fruit here, its dense & potent but also distinctly mineral & fresh. An essay in concentration with a very long life ahead of it. From soils of glacial moraine covered with calc shists, with the whole bunch fermentation adding freshness. 95 Points, Gary
