Alternative 2019

Gold Medal - Concours Général Agricole - Paris - 2020
 
Alternative has an intense, deep ruby colour. The nose is refined and fruity. Raspberry and blackberry notes combine with slightly spicy aromas. Full and generous on the palate with a good impression of sweetness, the sign of optimal ripeness of the harvest. Ageing exclusively in French oak barrels for the finesse of the tannins supports this oaky wine with notes of vanilla coming from an appropriate toast.
