Emmanuel Rouget, Bourgogne Rouge Size:6x750ml combining more Mediterranean and AtlanticA ripe and very fresh nose combines notes of both red and dark berries with those of earth and a whiff of humus character. The delicious and nicely vibrant middle weight flavors possess solid depth and persistence while concluding in a bitter cherry pit inflected finale. This is a quality Bourgogne and worth a look.
