Tasting
Deep garnet colour. The nose reveals aromas of cherries in alcohol, liquorice, cloves and almonds. On the palate, there is a fine balance between tannic structure and freshness. A well-balanced wine with a lovely fresh finish typical of the terroir and vintage.

A full-bodied wine with a taste of cherry and licorice. We drank it with grilled entrecote and vegetables.
