Tasting Notes

Deep ruby-hued, with dark cherry and plum layered over fresh black fruits, violets, sage, umami, and crushed-stone minerality. The palate is multidimensional and impeccably balanced, finishing expansive with refined tannins and lively freshness.

Food Paring

Pair with braised short ribs or roasted lamb to match the wine’s depth and structure. Mushroom-based dishes and herb-forward preparations also highlight its savory, mineral-driven complexity.
