Deep cherry red with purple tints. Complex and refined bouquet of red fruits, blackcherry, blackcherry, spices and vanilla. Silky attack, then rich and elegant mouth, with the same flavours wrapped in full, well-integrated tannins. Fresh and well-balanced on the long mineral finish.
An ideal match for red meats, lamb, roast duck. Also well suited for pasta, red sauces and cheese.
