An expressive nose with delicate floral notes of peony and aromas of cherry and strawberry. Fresh on the palate, with fine grained tannins, this wine is a harmonious marriage of Syrah and Grenache. The finish is long with a hint of menthol. - Pinot Noir: Louis Jadot Bourgogne Pinot Noir
This medium-bodied wine is harmonious, with forward, plump fruit and a silky texture balanced by gentle tannins and elegant structure. The very typical Pinot aromas and flavors of red cherries and wild strawberries are complemented by a delicious, lingering finish.
A charming nose of ripe, fleshy plum, blackberry, chocolate, and fresh tobacco. Tannins are firm but balanced, with an elegant acid profile. The palate is rich with cassis and blackberry, layered with warming spice.
Due to the popularity of this gift, wines or vintages sometimes sell out. Should this happen, we will always substitute with wines of equal or greater value.
