Redcurrants and raspberry leaf on the nose, slightly herbal and fragrant. Smooth and supple, a nice gentle chew to the texture with a juicy core of freshly-picked strawberries and red cherries underpinned by bright but not seeing acidity. Tannins are just a touch dry towards the finish, hints of menthol and eucalyptus give some freshness and sense of leanness, but also just giving some constriction to the fun fruitiness but this is nicely structured - not too light - with a long finish.
The 2021 La Serre confirms its strong showing en primeur, bursting with aromas of plums, berries, rose petals and spices, followed by a medium-bodied, pure and fleshy palate that's ample and charming, with an enveloping core of fruit and melting tannins. As readers may remember, this seven-hectare property, beautifully situated on the shallow soils of the limestone plateau next to La Clotte and Villemaurine on the one side and Trotte Vieille and Troplong Mondot on the other, is planted at 7,200 vines per hectare, with some 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc. The 2021 confirms that this is an estate on the rise.
