Our Berthet-Rayne Castel Mireio has a beautiful deep ruby color with a dark purple tint.
With a very expressive and intense nose of black fruits, sweat spices, a hint of caramel and fruit liqueurs (raspberry and blackberry). With air, notes of menthol and scents of "garrigue" and cedar wood appear. These notes are followed by a hint of chocolate and cacao powder. The combination of these differents aromas make this a very complex wine.
The palate is very juicy and fresh. The tannins are present, but soft and smooth. Although already quite charming, this wine has promising future with bottle age.
