Ageing

Tasting

Wonderful bouquet of aromas of dark fruits, black currants blackberries, and notes of white flowers, wet rocks and licorice. The palate is full and powerful, it has a weightless, seamless and elegant texture that carries a huge amount of fruit and texture, while never seeming heavy or cumbersome. Slightly more fresh and lively, with another level of richness.

Food pairing

All dishes made with red meats.

Serving temperature

61-64°F
