Colombier, Crozes-Hermitage Gaby other_regions_australia with flavors of appleSaturated ruby. Intense cherry and blackberry scents, along with hints of pipe tobacco, cola and baking spices. Juicy and energetic in the mouth, offering concentrated cherry, blueberry and spicecake flavors that turn sweeter on the back half.
