Tasting Notes: Deep ruby red in colour with garnet highlights indicating its youthful vibrancy and intensity. The nose is rich and expressive, offering a bouquet of ripe black fruits such as cherry, blackberry and plum. These fruity aromas of complemented by subtle hints of Mediterranean herbs, spices like black pepper and clove and a touch of earthy minerality. On the palate, this wine is full-bodied and well-balanced, with a harmonious blend of fruit and acidity. The flavours of ripe cherry and blackberry are pronounced, supported by layers of spice and a hint of vanilla. The tannins are well-intergrated and provide a smooth, velvety texture. The finish is long and persistent, with the fruity and spicy notes gradually fading, leaving a pleasant sense of freshness and complexity.

Food Pairing: This French red pairs well with hearty meat dishes such as boeuf bourgignon, lamb stew or roasted lamb, roasted poultry dishes, savoury pasta, mature, firm cheeses and spiced dishes.
