Tasting Notes
Intense, concentrated ruby. The first impression is striking for its intensity and perfume, with wild berries, forest fruit and a touch of spice. Barrel ageing lifts the whole, adding richness and complexity, with notes of dark chocolate and clove.
The palate is broad and ample, with firm yet smooth tannins and a long, persistent finish. A promising wine of great longevity, thanks to its fine balance between complexity and elegance.
Enjoyable straight away, it pairs well with cured cheeses, charcuterie, rich red meat dishes and game.
