Winery 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 smelled like a light honey, but tasted like grass topped with honey to try and mask the grass taste. I did not get any fruit taste at all. After letting it sit for a bit on my tongue, I also got a slightly acidic, mineral, and salty aftertaste.
I did not taste this wine with food.
