Demelo Bonnes Mares

Virtual Tasting with Friends #5 (Google Meeting) : Pale garnet, with some browning and fading on the edges. Pronounced nose with aromas of rose and cassis, and fungal hint. Light bodied, rounded tannins, with candied strawberry flavours, as well as cinnamon, cloves, rose, and bit of rocket leaves, and a slight hint of leather. Long finish of dried florals. Pretty nice

Seems to be a very small and relatively unknown maker. This was very subdued on opening. Not showing too much on the nose. But became much more impactful with air. After a couple of hours this had a lovely sweet nose with some fresh ripe red fruits.. Slight hazy. Pale ruby just a hint of age. In the perfect drinking spot. Shared with ST at Sumi-Ka
