Perched on the south-facing slopes of Château de Villars-Fontaine, this domaine in organic conversion produces firm, tannic wines intended for long ageing – this was among the youngest wines I tasted this spring. On the attack, the wine was initially a bit closed but it opens up on the palate to reveal a savoury, somewhat rustic red-berry fruit character with hints of earth and wild herbs – plenty of structure and freshness flesh out the feel on the palate.
