Impenetrable ruby with light garnet nuance. Significant olfactory impact, powerful, an explosion of black fruites, sour cherry, blackcurrant, blueberry. The black pepper comes up soon, the licorice, Sichuan pepper and chinotto. Later it opens with bitter cocoa, coffee, cigar and balsamic touches of laurel, juniper, eucalyptus, to end with mint chocolate and graphite. To the taste it proposes manly with the same power and thickness. Warm and solid with a strong tannin but high quality and dimensioned by the robustness of the wine. Despite the strength the mouth is not heavy in the sip, thanks to its acid-sapid shoulder. It leaves with a caloric embrace and a long aromatic persistence made of licorice memories, cr\u00e8me de cassis and bitter chocolate.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Food pairings: Structured meat dishes, like wild game stew, wild boar salm\u00ec, stewed lamb and chianina fillet with truffles.<\/p>\n Manual harvesting with selection of bunch of grapes.
