Les Grands Trinquiers Red Burgundy 2005

France – Red – 2005

Lovely light brick red colour.  Aromas of strawberry.  Light to medium bodied with a smooth, mouthwatering feel and flavours of cherry and strawberry.  A simple wine but eminently drinkable and good value at this price.

A clear light purple colour.  Typical cherry and strawberry aroma and flavours.  Easy drinking, medium body wine with a marked but not unpleasant acidity.  Went very well with squid cooked in its own ink.
