Tasting notes :
Deep red with a complex nose with notes of red fruit and smoked lardons. Vibrant and elegant on the palate, this wine is a perfect representation of this northern Rhône terroir. Silky tannins, and a long, satisfying finish. Delicious with roasted poultry and grilled meats. Aging potential of ten to fifteen years.
