Tasting notes

Fairly deep ruby colour; the nose is both powerful and remarkably elegant. The palate opens on floral, then spicy (pepper) notes. Very fine tannic structure and lovely persistence on the finish, with liquorice aromas.

Food pairing

Roast game or game in sauce, duck breast, red meats, world cuisine. It pairs very well with slightly mature soft cheeses (Munster, Saint-Nectaire…).
