Prunelart Gaillac Duras
Gaillac, Southwest France, France
2017 vintage. An obscure grape from the Gaillac region. Light, but with a character of its own. Fresh and charming.

I have been drinking this all afternoon. There is some iron on the backside. Some sweet cherry and maybe some citrus-orange. Probably the most unique thing about this wine is the lack of aroma. There is a little bit but not much.

My bottle may have been cooked. If not, this wine was awful. Stewed prunes and not much nose.

Nov 3rd, 2017Prunelard is ancient and actually an ancestor to Cot (malbec) which is the key grape in nearby Cahors. There is very little of it left, about 30ha I’d guess, and it is only permitted in IGP Cotes du Tarn, probably as there is so very little of it. The wine itself is a bit muted as first, prunes and a bit rustic on the palate on the first day, yet drinking along nicely at the same time. Very different on the second day with liquorice and spiciness,
