2023 Domaine de la Renaudie Les Guinetieres
Tasting Notes
Its bright color reflects all the shades of a fine purple red. A harmonious and delicate wine with fruity aromas of raspberry, strawberry and banana are intensified by light peppery shades. Initially fresh, this wine is supple with a smooth finish.
