WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
Red, with yellowish orange hints due to the ageing process. Dry, velvety and austere, with a bouquet of faded rose, violet, spicy and rich with gorgeous ripe fruit, very aromatic. Aged three years in large oak casks and in bottles for the final six months.
Pair with red meat, game, and pungent cheeses.
TASTING NOTES:
A restrained wine, showing licorice, red cherries, red currants and mint. Medium-bodied with firm, chalky tannins, crisp acidity and a slightly unfocused palate. Drinkable now but best from 2027.
