Character and style Its colour is a bright brilliant red with black tints. The nose is characterized by aromas of blackberry, cherry kirsch and wild nuances. The palate is lively and accurate with the introduction of the fruit and the soil. On the palate the wine is round, rich and expressive of a beautiful pinot-noir. The sherry and the blackcurrant complete and confirm its personality with a small final delicately spiced final. It is a well-balanced and accessible wine for anybody but with a real character.
