Dis, "Vin Secret" (d2021)

Discovering a new label from a beloved winery can be an exciting experience, and it seems that the Secret Wine, courtesy of Elvira, didn't disappoint!

The wine greets you with an intense and beautiful bouquet, a delightful blend of baked apple and fried sunflower seeds, enriched with the sweetness of caramelized lemon. Earthy notes of chalk, lime (not fruit), a damp cellar, and mushrooms add to its complexity. On the palate, the wine demonstrates its intensity with good acidity and balance, along with a persistent finish. It's almost perfectly balanced, striking a harmonious chord between intensity and subtlety.

This particular bottle, while less intense than older ones from Bedel, showcases a gentle delicacy that doesn't sacrifice depth or complexity. It's a testament to the winery's ability to produce nuanced and layered wines.
