Tasting notes

Deep ruby red color with purple highlights. The nose reveals a complex range of aromas: ripe black fruit, blackberries, black plums, mixed with spices (black pepper, cloves), toasted hints of vanilla and dark chocolate, and a mineral background that adds elegance. On the palate, it is powerful, structured, and balanced: ripe tannins, a silky attack, lively acidity, and a long, persistent finish with fruity and balsamic notes.

Pairing

Ideal for grilled red meats, roast lamb, game stews, strong mature cheeses, or hearty winter dishes.
