Wine:

The 2016 Red Vin de France Tinus Grand Rouge is pure precision and control. A wine marked by beautiful aromas of fruit, such as black berries and black pepper, and a delicate note of grilled bacon. It also offers a ripe and fresh palate with perfectly controlled flavors and smoothness. It fully deserves its name " great red" wine thanks to its dimension, relief, and its juicy, fresh texture, and present tannins.
