Hannibal 2020

Bouchard Finlayson, teknisk ark/fact sheet (hentet 18. okt. 2026): 2020 Bouchard Finlayson Hannibal – område: Hemel-en-Aarde Valley; 41% Sangiovese, 26% Nebbiolo, 10% Barbera, 9% Syrah, 8% Pinot Noir, 6% Mourvèdre; alkohol 14%. Producentens noter (engelsk): Vinifikation: Celebrating the 20th edition, marks a significant milestone for this eccentric blend, as the numbers of loyal followers continue to grow. Hand harvesting of naturally lowyielding, mature vineyards extend over six weeks. Following alcoholic fermentation in tank, individual components are barrelled down for a lengthy, secondary malo-lactic fermentation; with Sangiovese taking up to nine months to complete. The final blend was assembled after a year of small barrel maturation (17% new) and bottled in July 2021. Producentens noter (engelsk): Smagsnote: A thought-provokingly unique blend. Dried violet, iron oxide and earthy forest growth accent a firm and well defined tannin. Focussed and meaty textures leaves a lasting impression of effortless weight. Reserved, yet boasting fine intensity and exciting length, hints at rewarding potential lying in wait. Drink from 2023 through 2033.
