Made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, aging for 12-14 months in French oak barrels, 30% new, the 2020 Gironville has 14% alcohol. Deep purple-black colored, it shoots out of the glass with well-defined cassis and blackberry scents, plus hints of bay leaves, cedar chest and graphite with a touch of cracked black pepper. The medium-bodied palate is chock-full of crunchy black fruits with a firm, grainy frame and plenty of freshness, finishing long and lively. This is seriously impressive Cabernet, punching well above its weight!
