Is grolleau my favorite grape right now? I think it might be. This is a lovely blend, salty and earthy with just a little rind on it, somewhere.

Cabernet Sauvignon, groslot, cab franc, gamay. Fermentation seems unfinished, on nose. Slightly apple cider vinegar acidity.
Bright, sticky ripe blackberry and plum nose.
Dry, medium plus, minty tannin - too tannic on day 2.

Natural wine, clean distinct aromas of fresh cassis, poivron vert, violette. Bel équilibre entre acidité perlante (co2 résiduel) tanins souples et alcool moyen+. A servir frais.

Fantastic natural red. A touch funky, a touch salty, very drinkable and bright/fruity.
