A wine of deep scarlet red color that reflects the complexity and imposing character. On the nose, an ethereal, elegant bouquet of dark skinned fruits (like plums and forest berries), violet, liquorice and seductive tones of underground vegetation. A hint of peppery plants quietly makes its presence known. In the mouth there is a muscular and exuberant structure supported by robust tannins and a balanced acidity. A very complex wine with a remarkable aftertaste.
Best served at 18-20οC as an ideal pair for rich flavors. Try it with red meat and game, matured cheeses.
