The color of the 2019 L Aventure Optimus is a medium ruby-purple, hinting at its rich complexity. On the nose, the wine is extremely aromatic with ripe cherry and berry aromas, complemented by floral notes and a touch of citrus. This creates a vibrant and enticing bouquet that sets the stage for the tasting experience.

The palate is treated to a blend of cassis, floral, and pepper flavors, with a hint of graphite. The structure is seamless and balanced, showcasing the wine’s elegance and refined profile. The oak fermentation process adds a layer of complexity, contributing spicy and exotic undertones that enhance the overall experience.
The 2019 Optimus is a full-bodied wine that evolves beautifully over time. It is currently drinkable but promises to become even more delightful in the next two to three years.
