Tasting Notes

Notes

Colour: dark purple red colour.

Scent in perfume: a rich and immediate bouquet with hints of raspberries and blackberries with a touch of violet and liquorice.

Flavour: it is rich and well structured and offers ever increasing sensations of violets and cocoa until the strong and mighty meeting with the tannins, that make the sensations last.

Best served at: 19 ° C.

Food matches: excellent with roast meats, wild fowl, braised meat and cheeses. To be served at 19° C.
