Tasting notes
Beautiful ruby color, very sustained and brilliant with purple nuances. The nose, complex, fruity and persistent, offers aromas of blueberries and sour cherries. On the palate, this wine is supple, balanced with notes of blackcurrant jam and liquorice. Serve with red meat or game and, for dessert, it will be perfect with a chocolate cake. Serve at 16 ° C.
