“‘Rich and sophisticated’ (Suckling)”

“A rich and sophisticated Fleurie with layers of supple tannins that perfectly complement the aromas of ripe morello cherries and wild blackberries in the generous, beautifully polished palate. The finish is long, dry, and confident, with plenty of minerality.” (James Suckling 2022)
