Quincy Cuvée Terroir Nouzats 2021
15,00€
(Price per bottle: sent in boxes of 6 bottles)
The vines of the Nouzats in Brinay, planted at the end of the fifties, are rooted in very deep red sandy gravels. Part of the massal selections planted on our vineyard comes from this plot.
The wines reach developed maturities, expressing ripe fruit and soft and exotic roundness.
In line with Sucellus and the Vieilles Vignes, the Terroirs Collection is declined in 4 distinct vintages, each of them coming from a plot of old vines and vinified in oak barrels aged from 7 to 8 years, using wild yeasts.

Wine tasting notes
A flattering nose, notes of well ripe white fruit and of acacia honey, of hazelnuts and salted butter. A greedy flesh in the mouth, a delicate tangy finish that leaves a nice impression of freshness.
« The wine has a pale lemon-yellow color. The nose is delicate and fresh. It expresses subtle floral (hawthorn, fresh lime blossom), lemony (fresh lemon, lime, lemon zest) aromas, as well as notes of green apple, green plum, white peach and fine vegetal (cucumber) and refreshing herbaceous hints (verbena, tomato leaf). There are also very subtle spicy notes (white pepper, nutmeg) in the background. On the palate, the wine offers good structure, high acidity, as well as fruity substance and a subtle spiciness. It expresses notes of ripe citrus (yellow lemon, blood orange), citrus jam, white peach, combined with floral (linden, acacia), slightly herbaceous (verbena) and spicy (nutmeg, a touch of vanilla on the finish). Good tangy persistence with citrus notes, and a herbaceous touch of tomato leaf in the background. Beautiful freshness thanks to a
salivating acidity. Score : 15.25/20 (90/100) » (Vert de Vin n°23, July 2023)
