Pale purple; roses, liqueur de framboise, granite, high acidity. I like that a wine with such ripe fruit can still have such cut

Second tasting one year apart.. still as charming. Raspberry colour, unfiltered. In addition to the varietal notes, the bouquet tends towards the peppery herbs, between tea, vetiver, rose, dried herbs. As the wine opens, notes of blood orange, or sangria, develop giving energy to the whole. The tannins are very fine but persistent, with chew. We would drink it from breakfast.

Deuxième dégustation à un an d’intervalle.. toujours aussi charmant. Robe framboise, non filtré. Outre les notes variétales, le bouquet tend vers le végétal poivré, entre thé, vétiver, rose, herbes séchées. A mesure que le vin s’ouvre, des notes d’orange sanguine, ou sangria se développent donnant du tonus à l’ensemble. Les tanins sont très fin mais persistants, avec de la mâche. On en boirait dès le petit déjeuner.

An affordable wine and beautiful elegance. Peppery nose, raspberry, pinoting cherry, light toasted notes, infused vegetables, floral. Fresh, lively and silky mouth. Beautiful aromatic bouquet. It's fine and crunchy. Can age.

Un vin abordable et d’une belle élégance. Nez poivré, framboise, griotte qui pinote, notes toastées, végétales infusées. Bouche fraîche, vive et soyeuse. Beaux bouquet aromatique. C’est fin et croquant. Peut vieillir.
