I am not a fan of mixing drinks so I was going to just give you the description from the bottle, however it has no label on the back....not a good sign

However a quick Google search tells me it retails for £32.45 and is described as "A triumph. Made primarily from new vineyards planted in Neive, very Pinot like with medium depth, hauntingly scented and elegant on the palate with great length" (the last part sounds like I girl I know )

Therefore, I have poured a small glass and have to say I agree. I definitely think it is one that needs to be left to breathe for a while.

Now if it's ok with you I am back on the Grand Année
