TASTING NOTES


Colour: Intense garnet red; concentrated and solid. Clear and glossy.


Bouquet: Deep and elegant to the nose, with hints of fruit. Very fine aromas due to its ageing in high quality Allier oak.


Palate: Good body and lively tannins, in perfect harmony. Very expressive on palate with significant ageing potential. Long finish.


FOOD PAIRING


It demands more elaborated meals, and stronger meats. It pairs with anything that has dried fruits, spices like vanilla, cinnamon, cloves or nutmeg. We are talking about more elaborated and complex meals. Anyway, it is perfect with any cheese or salmon.
