Tasting Notes

Deep and polished, it opens with spices, black fruit, and licorice wrapped in subtle toast and roasted coffee-bean nuance. The palate is supple yet powerful, with discreet oak supporting a fruit-forward core and a long finish built on freshness, roundness, and very elegant tannins.

Food Paring

Pair with classic roasted or grilled meats—think lamb, beef, or duck—to complement the wine’s structure and savory complexity. It also works well with mushroom dishes or aged cheeses, where earthy flavors and fat soften the tannins and amplify the aromatics.

Professional Reviews

"Espresso beans and coffee on the nose immediately suggest richness and ripeness, with mocha-chocolate notes and a touch of kirsch-like brightness. It has good fruit too, with very chewy, rich tannins, but the fruit is there to amply match."
