The 2019 'Cuvée Confiance' Rasteau is an outstanding release from Domaine la Soumade. It instantly begins to impress with wonderful aromas of dark plums, dark cherries and raspberries woven together with exotic spices, wild herbs, licorice, wet stones and florals all developing in the glass. On the palate this is beautifully balanced with a gorgeous velvety texture and excellent concentration, with a core of dark fruit and spices that expand on to the long finish. While it is showing some youthful appeal, this will ultimately need a few more years of bottle age before it hits its stride.
