Rufo

Maybe it's an unfair comparison, but I enjoyed the Davoche Peychourigue 2023 much more. Rufo feels a bit empty - lacking energy and depth. Is it a varietal+location thing? Or just a wine that's too young? Hard to say, but drinking it now isn't particularly engaging.

There's not much fruit in the nose, just a touch of florality. On the palate, it's pleasantly saline, but again - there's little fruit and it feels hollow. It's not a bad wine by any means, but it leaves you wanting much more.
