13.5% abv. Dark cherry/cerise color; nearly opaque. Shows some viscosity. Cherries on the nose with a faint hint of violets. A little tart but with a pleasant finishing note. Light to medium body. Suggestion of lanolin which I more often detect in white Burgundies--in fact, this is the first time I've noted it in a red wine. This was enjoyable with a baked chicken main dish and leftover ratatouille. (A number of years ago I met Monsieur Jean Nicolas Meo at a wine dinner in DC and I always enjoy the personal note that comes from meeting the winemaker or proprietor.)
