Tasting Notes

Saturated dark violet with ruby highlights, it opens with cassis, blueberries and violets plus a clear earthy, soil-driven nuance. Dense and gripping, it layers mocha, dark berries, spice and mineral notes into a palate-staining, long finish.

Food Paring

Pair with lamb chops or beef tenderloin to complement the wine’s power and fine grip. Goat cheese also makes a great match, highlighting the wine’s savory-mineral streak.

Professional Reviews

98 James Suckling

"Elegant and perfumed nose with violets, spices, fresh blackberries, blueberries and touches of chiles, chocolate, cigar box and white pepper. Super juicy on the palate with compact, fine tannins and an extremely long finish. Drink or hold."
