NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This wine is a delightful expression of the Fixin appellation in Burgundy, France.On the nose, this wine offers a captivating bouquet of red fruits, such as ripe cherries and cranberries, accompanied by subtle hints of earthiness and forest floor. These aromas are further enhanced by delicate floral notes, adding a touch of elegance to the overall profile.
The palate is equally impressive, showcasing a harmonious balance between fruit, acidity, and tannins. The red fruit flavors persist, with additional layers of blackberries and plums coming into play. The wine's medium body and silky texture contribute to a smooth and refined mouthfeel.
It is a wine that can be enjoyed now, but also has the potential to evolve beautifully with cellaring.
