Tasting notes
Deep ruby red colour. On the nose: intense wild berry notes with hints of spices, black pepper, tobacco, cinnamon, and vanilla. On the palate: subtle herbal undertones of sage with unique vegetal nuances seamlessly blend with woody accents. The wine has pronounced acidity, balanced by well-integrated tannins and a long spicy finish.
Vinification
The grapes are fermented in stainless steel tanks for about 20 days at a temperature of 20-28°C.
Ageing
18 months in new French oak barriques.
Food pairing
Pairs well with flavourful, hearty dishes due to its full-bodied and complex character, including grilled or roasted red meats like beef and rich pasta dishes with meat or mushroom sauces. It also complements aged cheeses (cheddar, gouda, or blue cheese) as well as rustic stews and dishes featuring Mediterranean herbs and dark berries.
