Comes alive in cherry and spice and that’s probably enough to make me want to buy a bottle, but let’s look a little further into this French Pinot. There is a depth of flavour that stays with you, a warm embrace of cherry, cranberry, spiced plum, tomato leaf, dried herbs and a hint of floral rosehip. As you get into it, there is an earthiness, a simple but attractive layer, that goes hand in hand with the herbals. Good, all round drinking enjoyment.
