Maison B Perraud Le P’tit Poquelin 2015

Maison B Perraud Le P’tit Poquelin 2015  Bright ruby color with purple hue. Slightly funky on the nose, which is common with natural wines, but it did disappeared with air. The nose is on crushed red berries blended with spices and earth notes. The fizz present at bottle opening did cleared out too with time. From the first sip, I know this was going to offer high drinkability. Flavors of […]
