Open, rounded cassis-flavoured fruit, with some smooth coffee-and-cream richness. Rolling finish. Garnet in colour with a crimson rim. Medium density. Delicate nose, with mint, sweet cherry, nougat and earthy, mineral notes. The wood is there, but it is very much in the background.
A very versatile wine that will partner most meats, including cold roast beef, garlicky roast lamb, spicy ribs or stuffed turkey. Also try with pastas and pizzas and robust fish dishes. Delightful on its own. Serve at 16-18ºC
