Parker/Joe Czerwinski - 91
A 100% Grenache from vines averaging 65 years of age, the 2021 IGP Côtes Catalanes Nicolas (it does include 15% of the previous vintage) spent just eight months in demi-muids prior to bottling. A terrific effort for near-term consumption, it delivers subtle hints of garrigue, crushed stone and licorice, all on a bed of ripe black cherries. Full-bodied, round and expansive, framed gently by silky tannins, it finishes long and harmonious.
The ruby red Nicolas is a tribute to the son of the family.
On average, the vines are 65 years old and produce a strong, concentrated wine.
Aromas of dark red fruits fill the glass.
On the palate, the Nicolas is round, dense and has silky tannins.
