Tasting notes
Wine of a dark red color, nose of small red fruits, blackberries and cherries. In the mouth, fruity with a taste of vanilla, tobacco and spices produced by the maturation in barrels. Of a beautiful complexity and minerality, balanced and full body, with melted tannins. Long on the palate with a plum finish.
Serving temperature between 16 and 18 C. Can be paired with braised meat, pot au feu and aged cheeses.
