AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
The 2019 growing season was characterized by a dry winter and a mild spring, leading to reduced yields but high-quality grapes. The summer was warm and consistent, allowing the Muscat de Frontignan grapes to ripen perfectly.
Winemaker Matthew Day has spent a decade experimenting, innovating, and refining his craft, pushing the boundaries of quality. The 2019 vintage perfectly showcases his work. Emerging from a long and late harvest, the winemaking process shifted from extended 6 to 12-month fermentations to a precise 1 to 3-month period. The wine aged for 18 months in 50% new French and Hungarian oak barrels, followed by 18 months in large foudres, ensuring a complex and refined final product. The outcome is a wine blending opulence with balance and complexity.
The wine critics are unanimous in their scoring with Decanter, Greg Sherwood MW and Jane Anson coming in with 98 points whilst Neal Martin of Vinous scores one point behind with 97 points making this one of the most highly regarded vintages of Vin de Constance.
