Tasting

Complex nose featuring scents of red and black fruit along with a hint of tobacco and very fresh mentholated nuances which will evolve over time toward more animal and spicy notes. Rich and well balanced on the palate, this wine boasts impressive structure and crisp fruit, extending to an intense finish that is redolent of jammy, spicy notes.

Recipe suggestion: venison with Grand Veneur sauce
