Expressive, juicy, firm.
New look!
A consistently excellent wine; blackberries and plums, mocha and dried violets, brown spices and fleur de sel aromas are expressed. It is fresh with a juicy palate; lively berry fruits, coffee and cocoa and spice flavours dominate. Polished tannins, and good balance with notable firmness on the finish--benefits from decanting.
Pair: grilled or roasted meats, mushroom and thyme stuffed ravioli.
