What They Say
Ruby red color with garnet highlights. Strawberry, soft herb and slight red grapefruit nose. Medium to full bodied on the palate with classic pinot noir fruit. Mouth watering and well integrated acid palate and soft, supple tannins on the pleasantly lingering finish.

The vines grown between 600 and 800 meters of altitude, over six different municipalities close to the Mont Blanc.
