This wine is powerful, yet supple and elegant. The nose opens with intense berry and cassis fruit, highlighted by notes of dark chocolate and tobacco. Firm and silky upon entry, the palate is equally intense with chewy and sweet tannins and a very persistent finish with dark berries and sweet spices.
Velvety and rich, this wine is a good companion for tasty meats like lamb, roasted or stewed beef; aged mild cheeses, pasta with game sauce.
