Wine Description

This cuvée presents a deep ruby colour with purple reflections. On the nose, it reveals rich aromas of blackberries, plums, and black cherries, layered with subtle notes of vanilla, spice, and a touch of cedar. The palate is ample and structured, offering concentrated dark fruit flavours balanced by lively freshness. Fine-grained tannins give the wine depth and texture, leading to a long, elegant finish accented with hints of licorice and grilled notes.

Food Pairing

Ideal with hearty dishes such as wild boar stew, roast lamb, or braised short ribs.
