This Irancy 2023 charms with its sublime ruby color and nose of black cherry, blackcurrant and redcurrant. The palate is silky and savory, with delicate tannins and black fruit flavors echoing the nose, while mingling with morello cherry jam aromas through to a long, spicy, peppery finish. A lovely summer cuvée!
