A structured and elegant red wine with an expressive combination of ripe black fruit and savoury complexity. The nose reveals generous blackberry aromas layered with fresh bell pepper, pencil shavings, cedar wood and a delicate hint of violet. The palate is full-bodied and firmly structured, with juicy black fruit balanced by savoury notes of graphite and earthy tobacco. Subtle herbal nuances from the Cabernet Franc add freshness and complexity. Fine-grained tannins lead to a long, dry finish marked by gentle spice and lingering fruit.
This versatile Cabernet-led blend pairs beautifully with rich, slow-cooked dishes and earthy flavours. Enjoy with slow-braised beef short ribs brushed with garlic and thyme, roasted duck breast with a berry reduction, venison loin with juniper berries, or roasted vegetables seasoned with rosemary.
