VAT included
Intense, deep ruby red, at times impenetrable to the eye. It opens to the nose with clear scents of dark, overripe fruit, reminiscent of currants, plum jam and sour cherries in alcohol. Tertiary tones then emerge, leading the memory towards Christmas spices, nutmeg, tobacco, coffee and cocoa. The palate is set on an imposing tannic texture, which is worked to the chisel. Important body, warm mouthfeel and long persistence. Perfect with game, it is excellent with jugged hare.
