From the vineyards in the foothills of the Pyrenees and the Cevennes Mountains, this Pinot Noir is said to have refreshing and subtle aromas of ripe raspberries and cranberries with hints of plum and a touch of toast. The palate is referred to as showing a balance of ripe fruit and freshness with an appealing spicy smokiness.
