An intense and beguiling aroma pours from the glass of the 2013 Ataulfus, red berries, sweet heart cherries, redcurrant jelly and cassis liqueur combine with a cool and mineral note reminiscent of graphite, wet stones and foliage. Subtle hints of nougat, cinnamon, cardamom and clove, which, from experience, become even more prominent with a little maturity.

Color

Sparkling purple with clear violet reflections.

Nose

An intense and beguiling aroma emanates from the glass of the 2013 Ataulfus, red berries, sweet heart cherries, redcurrant jelly and cassis liqueur combine with a cool and mineral note reminiscent of graphite, wet stones and foliage. Aromas of nougat, cinnamon, cardamom and clove delicately suggest themselves, which from experience become more prominent with a bit of maturity. Violets, peony and thyme add a feminine touch to the whole.

Palate

On the palate, the 2013 Ataulfos is still somewhat closed, its acidity is refreshingly youthful and the tannin is stimulating and demanding. This structure suits it perfectly and gives it youthful finesse. Even though it is already accessible due to its fruit and fruit sweetness, it is still in its infancy and still has a lot of potential for development. Burgundian finesse paired with Spanish fire, we may be curious. With sufficient ventilation at the moment already great to drink, but has excellent storage capacities.

Recommendation

At this stage, be sure to decant and serve slightly chilled!
