L'ÎLE ARDENTE unveils a light garnet robe. Its peppery exoticism is perceived on the nose, continuing its journey towards the Orient. On the palate, soft tannins and round notes of ripe cumin and morello cherry.

"Delicate nose of cooked blue fruits such as blueberry muffins and blackberry pie, combined with the scent of zen and eucalyptus, spicy framework of Malabar pepper and saffron. Aromas are restrained, taking their places gently.
Silky texture, very flavorful and superbly balanced construction thanks to an intoxicating aromatic perception, a promise made to the future.
Braised veal fillet, sage butter, ash-cooked Jerusalem artichokes, arugula sprouts."

By Quentin Loisel, Head Sommelier of a two-star restaurant in Paris, who has built his career in starred restaurants in England and Latin America.

"Fruity, mellow and juicy with some cherries, raspberrires; dried thyme and crushed peppercorns. Medium-bodied with silky tannins and texture. Well-balanced and mellow with a delicious finish.From organically grown grapes. Drink now."
