Tasting note
Bright ruby red hue. Fine fruit scents on the nose with cherry, plum and cranberry, plus a hint of coconut. The palate delivers pronounced fruitiness – the sour cherry and blood orange tones find lovely company with an expression of violets. Wonderfully dry with lively acidity, noble texture, silky tannins and a mineral grip. Cool elegance and juicy drinkability right through the long, fine salty finish. Beautiful Burgundian character.
