Benjamin Leroux Volnay 2011 AOC

Variety: Pinot Noir

Country of origin: France
Vintage: 2011
Alcohol content: 13.0%
Color: light ruby red with violet hues
Bouquet: quite fruity, violet flowers, cherries
Taste: medium body, gentle, sour cherries, slightly higher acidity, elegant and on the fruitier side, medium to longer finish

Stopper: single piece cork
Gentle and to me still young example of AOC Pinot Noir. It has potential to further develop for sure.
