Very nice red wine. Drank it with Amytis at La Boissonnière Sentier when I was in Paris 31 May. A very good and full red wine.

Yum yum yaaaaaah that is some nice fresh in season raspberry! Roll my fruit in sugar, drop it in the mud, hope I didn’t see, kiss me on the chin to overcompensate.

Rare red Sancerre… Pinot noir grapes, bright red fruits and a little earth.
