Tasting note
Transparent ruby red hue. A discreet bouquet yielding dried plum, cranberry, Amarena cherry, Malaga ice cream, root vegetables and olive paste. Beautifully lightfooted – prances across the pal-ate. Fruit driven with lively acidity and flavours of blood orange, sour cherry and graphite. Discreet tannins, cool appearance, lovely varietal typicity with true Burgundian character. Opens with air to a fuller wine. A long refreshing finish. (tasted by wine academic Johannes Fiala)
