Domaine Gauby Muntada 2020 red wine

RVF Guide to the Best Wines of France 2023 (Sept. 2022): 93/100. Muntada seems, this year, a bit solar even if the elegance of the grain is beyond doubt. A wine to revisit in the future. The entire range presented impresses both by its precision and charm as well as its aromatic persistence. Great once again!
