NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
As a Grand Cru from the Clos de la Roche vineyard, this wine represents the pinnacle of quality and is highly sought after by wine enthusiasts.On the nose, this wine offers a complex bouquet of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and raspberries, intertwined with delicate floral notes of violets and roses.
