TASTING NOTES:
Compact ruby red, very little space for interpretation, declares the Eyes. “Just as well I’m here”, the Nose says merrily, “I’ll transport you to other worlds, beyond the colour. The glass exhales blueberry notes, a touch of nutmeg and expressions of violets and liquorice. In truth there is much more but I don't want to bore you, because at the end of the day the Palate always has the last word”. The Palate intervenes, “ Together we support each other to tell the wine’s story in full, even though what matters the most is that the wine is enjoyed by whoever drinks it! I’ll guide you through it’s soft elegance and a well structured strong complexity. I can envisage myself walking these lands in the summer, the heat flowing over me and the warmth of the sun, under my dusty feet the hot, red and stoney earth”.

FOOD PAIRINGS
Best served with tasty, structured dishes such as stuffed aubergine rolls, lasagne and hare stew. Seasoned and tasty cheeses are a very good match too.
