Comments on tasting

Robe: Beautiful dark red cherry robe.

The Nose: The complex bouquet is composed of some fruity grades (red fruit: raspberry, cherry, with a touch of licorice)

The mouth: ample, fat, voluptuous, soft, with a long finish.

An ideal wine to accompany beef ribs, lamb leg, cheese…

Served at ambient temperature but can be served a little bit cooler in summer.

Wine can be conserved from 5 to 10 years. The bottles should also be laid down horizontally in a dark place.
