Tasting notes

The Petite Ruche, 100% syrah, will charm you with its very intense purplish red color but also with its fruity nose with hints of red berries, blackcurrant and raspberry. Its palate is fresh and round with a final in fruits. It will pair perfectly with a charcuterie and cheese aperitif board.
