Domaine des Ardoisières, Améthyste 2019
Place: Savoie, France
Grape: Persan + Mondeuse Noire
Vibe: Elite
Pretty mental drop that drinks like top shelf Côte-Rôtie. The summer sun combined with an almost vertically steep slope means work stops around lunch as beyond this it becomes physically impossible... Truly heroic viticulture. Grown-over schist that imparts an unforgettable stony minerality. IMO, up there with some of the finer things coming outta France. ABV: 12%
