Les Traverses de Fontanès Cabernet Sauvignon

Fun wine! Tannins were but a mere shadow in a mid-day decadence. Light and playful..

At Poulet Bleu - Biodynamic Pic Saint-Loup (labeled Vin de Pays d'Oc), no oak, concrete tank.

• Nose: Bright cherry, raspberry, garrigue (thyme, rosemary), limestone minerality
• Palate: Crunchy red fruit, no oak weight, fresh acidity, very drinkable
• Texture: Light-to-medium body, fine tannin, clean
• Style: Pure, immediate, food-friendly — Kermit Lynch classic
• Tasting note: "Like a limestone-driven Loire Cab, not a Languedoc oak bomb. Cuts through frites, doesn't compete with the steak."

Cherries, pepper, chalk on the nose. Chalky cherry flavors all day long.
