Neal Martin MW 92/100
The 2019 Pofadder contains 80% whole-cluster Cinsault matured in a used foudre. It has an extremely well-defined bouquet of pine cones and mint-infused red fruit. The palate is well balanced with good grip on the entry, a mixture of raspberry and wild strawberry fruit leading to a herbal finish that just needs a little more grip and density. Still, this is an excellent OVS from Sadie, though I would not put it at the top of the pile this year. Drink 2022 - 2036Neil Martin, Vinous.com.com (April 2021)

About this wine
Cinsault

It has a rich history, primarily in the Languedoc region of southern France, but it has spread to many other wine-producing areas due to its adaptability to different climates.
