Tasting
Appearance : a beautiful deep, crystal clear colour with hints of dark garnet and violet.
Aroma : subtle nose offers fresh floral aromas and good length. The bouquet fills out with notes of spices and small wild fruit.
Palate : the wine is balanced and supple with a pleasant acidity, giving it a pleasing minerality. The structure of the tannins is sleek and mature with superb consistency in the mouth. Pepper, red fruit and notes of liquorice develop in a delicious, long finish.
A very enjoyable wine, to be shared with
friends. Taste, with red
meat, either grilled or with a sauce, white
meat and prepared pork dishes such as pâté
and dried sausage.
Decant if possible and serve at 18°C
