Fairly dry, medium bodied, well balanced, very slightly spicy, ripe, raspberry-plum, lemon-apple flavours with a lingering, bright, fairly fresh, crisp finish. A crowd-pleasing, well balanced, ready-to-drink, Traditional method blend of 55% Pinot Noir and 45% Chardonnay that was aged for over two years on the lees. Has 12.5% alcohol and 9 g/L residual sugar with lot number L22152 on the back label. Perfect anytime with anything. NEW in Vintages. |
