Wine

Information

Dense and impenetrable in colour with purple tinges. Oriental spice
aromas and a slight hint of roasted cocoa accompany the wine
throughout all tasting phases. Hints of black fruits and humus notes.
Consistent and embracing flavour reminiscent of velvet; final hint of
black pepper. A complex wine full of sensations, to be enjoyed slowly
and in good company. As for meals, it goes well with game, red meats
and strong cheeses, after meals with chocolate and dry pastries.
