L’Exception 2020 Invincible (Bio, Nature) | Domaine Bergeville | $37
The very popular Domaine Bergeville is a true must in the region! This Hatley vineyard has had its share of setbacks... In Marsh 2022, the explosion that destroyed the Centre de Valorisation de l’Aliment de Sherbrooke caused a lot of stress to the winemakers who stored part of their inventory here. Miraculously, most of this batch remained intact and after several analyses, the product turned out to be exceptional ... hence the name L’Exception 2020 Invincible! This wine has a very complex nose with cranberry, red and black cherry aromas as well as a floral character evoking hibiscus and violets. On the palate, you’ll discover delicate persistent bubbles and a very straightforward, extremely dry taste with a more vegetal and animal character in retro-olfaction. Pair it with your first course dish, with slightly spiced tapas or as a dessert with a piece of dark chocolate.
