2020 Clos de la Molenie, Pas de la Colline, Vin de France, France

The 2020 Amphore, 100% Merlot done in terracotta, offers up an exciting mix of black cherry, plum, sage, menthol, licorice and rose petal. The Amphore is done with 100% whole clusters, but the stems are very nicely integrated in the wine's fabric. This is another compelling wine from proprietors Kim and Sylvain Destrieux.
