NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This complex and expressive red from Domaine Michel Lafarge is a beautiful expression of Beaune 1er Cru.The nose is filled with aromas of fresh red fruits and earthy spices, while the palate has a silky texture and a long, elegant finish that is balanced by fresh acidity. Notes of blackberry and cassis are perfectly integrated with hints of mushroom and warm oak. Enjoy now or cellar for the next 20 years.
