Risqué relishes “la crèma de la vida” (the cream of life)—the finer things—all that is delightful and delicious, luscious and languid, sensuous and sublime. That is exactly what this 100% Pinot Noir, aged in 100% toasted French Oak, delivers.

This glittering dark raspberry liquid is perfumed with mouthwatering dark ripe cherries, dark cocoa, spicy clove and delicious licorice. The mouth is filled with more luxurious summer cherries, ripe wild briar fruits, English toffee, pekoe tea and slivers of orange zest tempered with earthy woody notes. A sensuous, plump mouth feel is supported with silky tannins and balanced acidy, all mellowing into a lovely, soft, fruit-strewn finish.

Succumb to “La Crema” and saturate your yearnings with what Risqué desires… “la crèma de la vida."
