Tasting NotesBright ruby red colour with slight orange hues, complex and enveloping bouquet. The fruity aspect then emerges, recalling shrivelled blackberries and pressed sour black cherries. Full, harmonious, warm savour, with a slightly dry and complex finish.
-
PairingA full-bodied wine that goes well with complex meat dishes and game in general, and brings out the qualities of seasoned cheeses.
-
CellaringOnce the malolactic fermentation is completed, this powerful wine is aged in French oak barriques for 36 months, so to bring it to its peak of elegance. It is then put into bottles, where it still ages for at least two years.
