Château Castigno
trait de Lune n°10
2024

21.00 €

“Trait de Lune n°10 from Château Castigno embodies the excellence of Cinsault in an almost unexpected register, both greedy and deep. The carbonic maceration preserves a remarkable fruitiness between blackberry and tart cherry, enhanced by a charming floral dimension (rose, peony, iris). On the palate, the pleasure is immediate: it’s juicy, straight with good aplomb and a perfect finish. Indulgence is complete with a pork loin with vegetables or roasted poultry with herbs.”
