Crafted from a traditional winemaking blend of Cabernet Franc and Grolleau Noir, this wine boasts a striking red hue complemented by a delightful interplay of fruity and spicy notes. The use of carbonic maceration not only imparts a unique character to the wine but also lends a graceful touch, resulting in a well-rounded finish.
