3.5/5 (14 customers)

With its beautiful ruby red color, the 2013 Aluzé has everything it takes to charm. First of all, its rich and intense nose of ripe red fruits, enhanced with balsamic notes and a touch of cherry. Its powerful and voluminous palate opens with notes of strawberry jam and pronounced tannins. The freshness of the schist soil provides a beautiful balance. A wonderful discovery that will take you on a journey!
