Red wine

Antoine Sunier 2016

RRP £21

The younger brother of Julien Sunier makes stunning wines from organically farmed plots. This is juicy and lively, with fresh, sappy raspberry fruit. It shows good concentration, the sweet mid-palate offset by a subtle herbal note. There’s an attractive wildness to this wine.
