Domaine de la Madone Fleurie, Tradition, 2023 Lombardy c) maintaining the tradition thatThis estate has been the property of the Despres family for 6 generations. They own some of the oldest vines in the area with most of their vines being 70 100 years old. The fruit for this wine comes from La Madone hill, rated as one of the best vineyards in Fleurie. This wine is supple with loads of ripe cherries, herbs and a touch of spice. The tannins are fine but very present. It can be drunk young, but also improves over time.
