Tasting profile
Garnet red with orange reflections. The bouquet is characteristic, intense and ethereal, combining spice with light nuances of vanilla and dried flowers. The palate is full-bodied and dry, austere yet velvety, with harmonious balance and a long, persistent finish.
Serving and pairing
A fitting partner for meat, roasts, game and mature cheeses.
