Lovely nose delicately scented with earth, musk, sandalwood, vanilla, cinnamon, and red fruit like cassis, cherry and raspberry. Smooth tannins, excellent balance of concentrated, layered fruit and piercing acidity makes this wine immediately appealing on the palate. Serve at 16-18°C with red meat dishes, mushrooms or mature cheeses. Ready to drink now or kipping over 10 years.
The Besancenot family’s winery has its roots in 1850. Their 12 different appellations are planted within 10 hectares with six of the noblest grape varieties.
