This crème de cassis uses the prestigious “Noir de Bourgogne” variety of blackcurrant which is only grown in the Côte d'Or region in Burgundy. The fruit is macerated in a water-alcohol solution for around 10 weeks to extract the optimum flavour and aromatic intensity.
For a classic French apéritif, add a few dashes to the bottom of a glass of dry white wine for a Kir à Vin, or for something special, enjoy with Champagne instead for a Kir Royale.
I enjoyed the wine in so far as it is well rounded - the taste of black fruit evident - not sure about the liquorice though. All in all for the price a pleasant easy drinking wine.
Super ripe very smooth dry red, with just a hint of Cherries in that Italian style and You are able to drink this wine with or without food, Very good value at $20.
We've been fans of their Syrah and Chardonnay for some time and this is another go-to product we'll add to the list.
Light in colour, but plenty of depth and flavour and pleasingly dry.
Highly recommended.
