Franck Peillot
Bugey Montagnieu Mondeuse Noir
Delicate, low alcohol, highly expressive nose of violets, cherries, cinnamon and clay earth. On the palate, tart red and blue fruit, floral and peppery. Tastes a bit like a cross between Beaujolais and lighter style northern Rhone. Drinks every bit as lovely as that sounds.
