The full-bodied palate is silky and uplifted, with fine, savory accents and a very long, mineral-driven finish. It deserves another 3-5 years in bottle and will be long lived in the cellar.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #222223;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #9f250d;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJames Suckling:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e Blackcurrants, crushed stone and lavender with some rosemary. Full-bodied, yet it spirals deep and true on the palate, with creamy tannins and a dark, brooding finish. Provocative on the palate. Asphalt and spice notes. 50% syrah, 35% cabernet sauvignon and 15% petit verdot. Drinkable now or try after 2025, but you should really give this at least another five years in the bottle.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eProducer Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\nL'Aventure is a well-regarded Paso Robles winery with a small production and a dedicated following. It makes both Cabernet Sauvignon- and Syrah-driven red wines from vineyards along the Santa Lucia mountain range. The estate was founded by French winemaker Stephan Asseo when he arrived in Paso Robles in 1996 looking for suitable growing conditions for Rhône varieties. Asseo began making wine in the 1980s and had already established a winery in Bordeaux. L'Aventure has 51 hectares (127 acres) of land planted to Syrah, Grenache, Mourvèdre, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Roussanne, Viognier and Grenache Blanc in the southwest of Paso Robles. The vineyards benefit from the cooling effects of the nearby Templeton Gap that allows breezes from the Pacific to pass through the mountains. These breezes mean the vineyards have dramatic temperature drops at night (high diurnal fluctuation), helping the fruit retain its acidity as it matures. The red grapes are all completely de-stemmed before fermentation. L'Aventure has 20 fermentation tanks, so that each vineyard block can be vinified separately. L'Aventure's popularity has been driven by its small production – roughly 8000 cases annually – and positive critical reception.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"CaskCartel.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43331428647050,"sku":null,"price":701.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/files\/11_9be0a799-478c-4ad6-a96d-98bf338fc55b.jpg?v=1692283008","url":"https:\/\/caskcartel.com\/es-be\/products\/2019-laventure-estate-cuvee","provider":"CaskCartel.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
