Tasting notes
The wine appears arich ruby red, then releases clean-edged aromas of raspberry and pomegranate, enriched by graceful
floral notes. All components are beautifully balanced on the palate, with glossy, elegant tannins and afull-flavoured, longlingering finish with a delicious minerally tang.
Wine pairing: Beef stews, braised meats and aged cheeses.
