Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows luminous garnet with a youthful ruby edge. The nose opens with black cherry, morello plum and cassis, followed by notes of hazelnut, vanilla, nutmeg and forest floor. The palate is full and enveloping, offering layers of dark berry fruit, subtle mocha, cedar and mineral undertones. Tannins are refined and silky, giving a long, elegant finish that lingers with hints of spice, earth and fine oak.
Food Pairing

-
Roast venison with pepper and wild mushrooms
-
Aged beef fillet with truffle
-
Duck breast with cherry glaze
