Description

Les Roches Grises is a fruity, elegant red with fine tannins that owe their origin to our granite subsoil. This spicy wine is a blend of Pinot Noir and Gamay grapes, some of which are matured in Allier oak barrels. This is a wine of great finesse, with light, silky tannins, notes of sweet spices and black fruit, good balance on the palate, roundness and fairly long aromatic persistence.
