"A delicious, fruity treat"

“Medium to deep ruby red color. A sweet nose of candied cherry, plum, and red berries, with notes of garrigue and soft oak. Well-rounded on the palate, with silky tannins and flavors of freshly crushed berries—digestive, juicy, and fresh—leading to a long, supple finish.” (Andreas Larsson - Tasted)

Gilbert & Gaillard

Wine rated (2020 guide) 89/100

About the wine:

A beautiful, fairly deep garnet color. A fruity nose with lovely intensity and notes of ripe blackcurrant. On the palate, this is a rich, fruit-forward wine that captivates with its silky texture, freshness, and overall balance. The finish lingers with fruit notes.
