Tasting:

• Dress : Deep garnet color with purple highlights.
• Nose : Complex aromas of black fruits (blackcurrant, blackberry), with notes of leather, tobacco, vanilla and spicy nuances.
• Palate : Well-structured with silky tannins and lovely acidity. Ripe fruit flavors mingle with spicy and woody notes, with a long and elegant finish.

Food and Wine Pairing:

Guarding Potential:

Service Tips:

• Temperature : Serve between 16 and 18°C.
• Decanting : Decanting for approximately 1 to 2 hours is recommended to allow the aromas to fully develop.
