Cherry, raspberry, strawberry, currant, vanilla, oak, dried sage and plum. Great structure and soft tannins.

Light and balanced. Scent of strawberries and a lively acidity on the finish. Understated, very nice

Tastes like ambition. Looking for more than great fruit and balance. This has a French accent with spice and depth. On the nose there’s pepper, strawberry, plum and allspice. Almost like they added a little Zinfandel.
