Languedoc
Red
Sold individually
Drink or Keep
Espérance 2019 expresses ripe fruit aromas on the nose (raspberries, redcurrants, blackberries), with hints of garrigue and spicy touches (vanilla, pepper). The palate is silky, refined and smooth. This red is the perfect accompaniment to tuna tartare or grilled red meat... A generous, full-bodied cuvée!
