Description
TASTING NOTES
Grape Variety: 49% Cabernet Sauvignon, 48% Malbec, 3% Petit Verdot
Appearance:
Bright ruby red with garnet (deep purple‑red) highlights.
Nose (Aroma):
A complex bouquet: cherry, raspberry, red currant, plum mingles with floral notes, violet, honeysuckle, jasmine and a touch of herb/earth. There are also spicy, savoury accents nutmeg, baking spices, undertones of tobacco, smoky oak and subtle floral zest.
Palate:
Full‑bodied. The wine is fresh, with high acidity balancing the rich fruit. Tannins are fine, silky rather than aggressive. The fruit core is both red and dark (berries, currant, plum), layered with spice, earth/herbal elements, and subtle oak. The finish is very long, persistent, with savoury charm, defined by both freshness and depth.
FOOD AND WINE PAIRINGS
-
Grilled or roasted beef rib eye with herbs (rosemary, thyme) and coarse salt — the wine’s tannins and savoury tones balance the richness.
-
Lamb dishes, especially rack of lamb or lamb shank with a crust of spice or herb.
-
Game meats (venison, wild boar) with berry or pepper sauce.
-
Mushroom‑rich dishes (e.g. wild mushroom risotto, or mushrooms in a red wine reduction) — the earth and herbal notes will echo.
-
Rich cheeses: aged cheeses like Manchego, Comté, or smoked gouda might work well.
AGING POTENTIAL
