A blend of Gamay and Pinot Noir, the wine is an attractive light red in colour, the hallmark of both the varieties and the vintage.
The nose has a smokey cherry character that is backed by sweet, yet earthy oak.
The palate is mineral and stalky with taught acidity, the DRL is a wine this best described as 'structural' rather than fruit driven.
The wine finishes with good length, with oak adding a richness and softness that rounds it out nicely.
