Description
Le Facteur Su'l'vélo rouge from the Domaine du Facteur is a light, fruity wine that is easy to drink whilst young. It is a blend of Gamay and Pineau d’Aunis produced using carbonic maceration. Its rich flavour is complemented by tangy fruit notes (red berries, nectarine) and a slightly peppery finish. A “wine for friends” that invites you to pour another glass, and which reminds film buffs of Jacques Tati’s famous postman in “Jour de Fête”.
