Medium to deep garnet-purple in color, the 2018 L'Esperance de Trotanoy comes skipping out of the glass with fabulously open, youthful scents of blueberry preserves, Morello cherries, fruitcake and cinnamon stick with touches of menthol, chocolate box and potpourri. The medium to full-bodied palate delivers lovely freshness, lifting the rich, spicy black and blue fruit layers to a long, seductively soft-textured finish. Scrumptious!
