This wine has a dark red, almost black colour. The nose is redolent of fresh fruit (raspberries, cherries, strawberries) and, after swirling in the glass, more complex notes of spice, dried herbs, fennel, and a slight floral nuance.The wine is straightforward and well-balanced on the palate, with good concentration and plenty of volume. Despite a substantial quantity of tannin, it remains smooth and rich, with excellent balance between substance, density and freshness. The texture is delicate and precise. The finish is very long and complex with fresh red fruit, liquorice and cinnamon, as well as more terroir-induced notes of smoke and flint. Whole grapes are fermented at 28°C in smallwooden vats with extraction by manual punching down. The wine is aged for 18 months in barrels (60% are new barrels produced in our in-house cooperage). After being racked a single time, wine is aged according to its profile.
Serve at 16-18 °C with red meat stew with black plums, roast beef and veal, roast lamb, medium hard cheeses.
