Drinks akin to a Pineau d’aunis - with light aromas of blackberry, pepper, and fig. Best on day 2 and 3. D’Aosta might be the new “it region” before too long.

Not sure why Delectably lists the Fumin grape first since it’s only 5% of the blend (Petit Rouge is 95%). But whatever. This is very nice. Nose has crunchy dark berry, walnut, crushed rock, and violet. A little like Loire Cab Franc but friendlier and less pungent. Palate shows lots of flavor in a light-footed frame. Deep, crisp, stone-inflected, ripe, dark berry fruit. Nice balance.
