Notes:
Red vibrant colour, quite translucent but homogeneous.
The nose brings lots of red cherries and beautiful aromas of peaches, unusual for a red wine, but very nice.
The palate is smooth and elegant, bringing lots of cherries, raspberries and strawberries and with similar notes to good Burgundy wines. A bit too alcoholic and not too long length were a bit disappointing, however a rather nice wine overall.
