This wine is refined and spirited, with a clean and precise nose featuring scents of red fruits, blackcurrant, and cherry, complemented by a subtle smoky note. The palate is very elegant and lively, ripe without being overpowering; it's a charming wine that can be enjoyed throughout a meal, starting with the aperitif.
