Shop Review: Made from Pinot Noir saignée—has an salmon-pink dress and opens with a clear, pure and very delicate bouquet of ripe red berries (raspberries) and sweet cherries, floral aromas (rose petals) but also fresh elements. On the palate, this is a full-bodied, round and pretty rich but pure, fresh and finessed wine with intense fruit, fine tannins and a very persistent, well-structured taste. The finish is stunningly powerful, intense and aromatic but also fresh and mineral, with nice grip and even salinity notes.

My Review: This wine had a very strong fruity smell, but not enough to be overwhelming. At first, I could taste a raspberry and then cherry taste. I found this wine to be more on the acidic and tannic than I was anticipating. The finish of the wine reminded me of a lemon or lime bite.
I tasted this on its own with no food.
