Flavour notes

Deep in colour and concentrated in aroma, with blackberry, cassis, blueberry, plum skin and maraschino cherry at the core. Around that fruit come leather, anise, garrigue, peppery spice, violets and a mineral note reminiscent of wet stone or gravel dust, with subtle savoury tones in the background.

On the palate it is medium-full to full-bodied, driven by dark, spiced fruit. The tannins are compact yet refined, at times powdery, with a silky, almost velvety texture. Focused acidity keeps the wine lively, and the finish is long, spicy and lightly chocolate-toned.

Product info about L'aventure Optimus 2021

L'Aventure Optimus 2021 is a Paso Robles red that captures the estate's own approach to blending Rhône and Bordeaux varieties in California. The wine brings together Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot, all grown on L'Aventure Vineyard in the Willow Creek District. Optimus is positioned by the winery as an introduction to its range, yet the 2021 clearly carries serious depth, structure and vineyard character.

L'Aventure was founded in 1998 by Stephan Asseo, after his earlier work in Bordeaux. The estate sits on the western side of Paso Robles, where rolling terrain, complex well-drained soils and maritime influence help shape wines with ripe fruit and freshness. For this vintage, the fruit came from low yields, the malolactic fermentation took place in barrel, and the wine spent 16 months in French oak, half new and half one-year-old. It was bottled unfined and unfiltered.

At Drankenshop Broekmans, this is the kind of bottle we would point to when someone wants a powerful American red with detail rather than just weight. The 2021 received strong recognition from Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, James Suckling and Jeb Dunnuck, but its real interest lies in the meeting of dark fruit, spice, floral notes and mineral tension. Several tasting notes mention that it benefits from air, so a short decant is a sensible choice when opening it young.

The producer indicates a drinking window of more than ten years for Optimus. The 2021 can therefore be cellared further, while already giving a compelling impression of L'Aventure and Paso Robles when allowed to open in the glass.

About L'AVENTURE

L'Aventure is a wine brand from the United States with roots in the Paso Robles region, Californiâ. The estate was founded in 1998 by the French winemaker Stephan Asseo, who, after years of experience in Bordeaux, decided to realize his own vision of winemaking in Californiâ. The vineyards are located in the western part of Paso Robles, an area known for its calcareous soils and distinctive Mediterranean climate. L'Aventure is especially known for its blends of Bordeaux and Rhône grape varieties, such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, and Petit Verdot. By combining traditional French techniques with the possibilities of Californian terroir, the winery is able to produce powerful and concentrated wines that are often characterized by depth and structure. The approach focuses on a low yield per hectare and a careful selection of grapes. Over the years, L'Aventure has received much attention from both wine enthusiasts and critics and is known as one of the pioneers in Paso Robles in the field of innovative wine styles. The range consists of various red blends and a limited selection of white wines, often produced in small quantities.
