Tasting profile
Intense ruby red with light garnet nuances. The broad, complex bouquet is gently fruity, combining earthy mineral notes with chocolate, spices and leather. Medium-bodied and ample on the palate, with an articulated, fairly dense tannic texture balanced by acidity. The finish is long, mineral and spicy.
Serving and pairing
Serve at 18–19°C. Pair with lighter red-meat dishes, mushrooms, pâtés and firm aged cheeses.
