The style is Burgundy inspired by the Alsatian touch using indigenous yeast and French oak of 25% is new. In the glass the color of a pink diamond moving deeper into the core with tightly beaded pearls. On the nose of fresh rhubarb, juicy strawberries, sour yellow cherries perfumed with cherry blossoms, spiced with candied ginger, salted oyster crackers, and a hint of smoke on the palate, dry tart fruit, vanilla custard, creamy mousse, infused with a sweet and savory finish with length and refreshing acidity.
