Domaine Les Alexandrins Saint-Joseph Tasting Notes
It has a beautiful dark red colour with purple hues.
The nose displays great mineral freshness, complemented by aromas of blackcurrant, peony and sweet spices.
On the palate it shows a fine tension, to which its silky tannic structure contributes. Rich and digestible finish.
