Tasting Notes
Dark red, almost impenetrable.
Complex bouquet resulting by both the variety and the barrel. Sour cherry jam, prune, fig, black pepper, bitter chocolate meet the hints of vanilla, cedar and leather.
Soft and warm at first, rich and savory, with well-integrated tannins, does not lose its elegance thanks to its acidity. Ripe fruits and spices make their presence constantly noticeable until the very long and persistent finish.
Food Pairing
Ideal partner for big hairy game, it is flattered by red meat, especially when cooked with spices. Beef fillet in madeira sauce, tournedos rossini and grilled calfs liver, are only some of the dishes that could pair with it.
Ageing
At least 15 years.
