Tasting Notes

Compact ruby red with violet reflections. The aroma is elegant with pleasant notes of red fruits that intertwine well with the characteristic herbaceous hints. It closes with light spicy entities which are more evident in important years. Intense on the palate, with a well-balanced tannin and a perfect correspondence between the taste and the aromas. Excellent persistence.

Food Pairing

Ideal with red meat, game and hard cheeses. Must try with grilled meat.
