Carignan Prima 2019 (375ML)

93 JS / 90 DE

Plum and sweet-berry aromas with fresh flowers, such as violets and roses, following through to a medium body with beautiful, round tannins and a long, fresh finish. Lilac and lavender undertones. Nicely polished structure. 100% merlot. Best after 2023. - James Suckling

Beautifully aromatic nose, full of ripe and fresh strawberry jam. Succulent and generous on the palate, tannins are a little too present but they do support some bright summer berry fruit underneath. I like the cooling elements of this - the mint, liquorice spice and blueberry tones. There are certainly layers, just needs some time. Wet stone elements at the very end which appeal. - GH, Decanter
