Tasting Notes
Deep ruby red, still with a youthful purple tint.Complex nose with cassis, spicy clove and mint. Well-structured, full-bodied and supple, with red-fruit flavours supported by soft, ripe tannins Oak and fruit are well balanced, showing a sensitive use of wood. A wine with depth and length, illustrated by the lingering aftertaste.
Will happily partner with robustly flavoured dishes such as beef olives, casseroled lamb, chicken in red wine, game, fish, creamy sauce pastas and mild cheeses.
