Sommelier's Notes

Tasting Notes

Bouquet

The nose is sensual in its complexity, with aromas of forest fruits, sweet red cherries, licorice, mineral and coffee scents.

Flavor

The taste is long, with a complex finish with fine, silk-like tannins and good acidity; dense structure, full of super-ripe fruit.

Food Pairing

stewed red meat, aged cheese, game, and white truffle dishes. Ages into a fine meditation wine.
