Domaine de la Touraize, Red Macvin

28.00 

"Bite into the juicy cherry flesh! A delicious aromatic blend dominated by cherry stone and carried by a gentle hint of alcohol. The attack is not in the least aggressive; it complements the fruit with a smooth texture, and the sweetness of the juice is natural. Ideal with a chocolate fondant, a Black Forest gateau, ice cream or a vacherin with red berries."
