Bourgogne rouge

It is a marvellous accompaniment for fine charcuterie and red meats. It also goes extremely well with summer salads and always complements cheeses.

 

 

2017 Vintage

This wine reveals bouquets of toast with a touch of vanilla. In the mouth it is both harmonious and balanced with its red fruits crisp and slightly acidic. The real charm of this wine is to be found in its suppleness, its smoothness and its delicacy.
