Comments and tasting
  • Intense and dark ruby red wine.

  • Clean and crisp on the nose with aromas of wild strawberries, raspberries. A beautiful juice with aromas of fresh grapes and spring flowers, such as lilac and rose. After a bit of breathing, this wine will develop currants aromas that will seduce and invite you to drink.

  • The mouth is round and fine, very consistent with the nose plus peppery aromas. It is a very crisp and pleasing wine. Very typical and reminiscent of the South of France, nicely balanced with its very well integrated soft tannins. The medium acid content brings a welcomed freshness. A precise wine and a good profile of the vintage. Leave it to breathe so all the lovely aromas can be released, and enjoy a long and smooth aftertaste. One to savour !
