Our oenologists' opinion
Fruity and crisp
With its light salmon color, this wine offers you a nice nose on a floral tip of hawthorn, then fruity. On the palate, it has a good balance, freshness and a nice fruity character. Finale on a touch of peppermint.

Features
Body?The body is the way a wine feels inside the mouth. Several factors, such as the alcohol content and the presence of tannins, contribute to the feel of the wine.
Freshness?The freshness of a wine is defined by its level of acidity. Unlike rounded wines, fresh wines are easy to drink, and are more lively. Acidity plays a necessary part in a wine's structure.
Aging?All wines do not have the same aging potential. Some are supposed to be consumed at a young age while others must be kept for longer periods of time.
Tannins?Coming from stems, grape pips and their storage barrels, the tannin gives structure to red wines only.
