Le Petit Mouton 2010 is purple in color and reveals a rich and complex nose on pleasant red fruit and vanilla aromas with hints of cocoa. The attack is immediately.

This will always be a great contrast to the dark power of the 2010, sporting lush layers of fig, boysenberry and blackberry confiture, carried by velvety.
