Tasting

The nose boasts great depth and features notes of red fruit (raspberry, red currant), and flowers (peony, rose, violet...) along with a delicate hint of oak which will evolve over time to more animal and spicy aromas. Power and elegance come together marvellously on the palate for voluptuous mouthfeel.

Recipe suggestion: beef tenderloin served with a red wine reduction
