Much deeper light ruby than the Poulsard. Some light black cherry fruit, but fairly neutral and not nearly as interesting as the Poulsard. This did nothing for me.
Midway in color between the Pinot and Poulsard. I couldn't get much aroma out of this but was struck by its very silky texture for a light weight wine and flavors that hinted at ground coffee. Subtle soil finish. My favorite of the 3 reds, could last for several years.
Not as deep nor as overtly oxidative as the Sacha, but much more volatile in an offputting, paint thinner way. Medium weight, very saline. Just a small whiff and taste of this gave me a headache, as some distilled spirits do.

Incredibly light color and body. Faded red fruit, high acid and a strong earthy streak. Very delicate, indeed fragile wine.
