Tasting notes
Lovely red hue with soft orange highlights. Layered, complex aroma of red berries with subtle hints of vanilla and balsamic notes. Velvety tannins make the palate surprisingly soft, full and rich, with a lingering finish.
Pairs well with
Pairs especially well with bread-based dishes, first courses from pasta to soups, warm vegetable appetizers such as tarts and flans, red and white meats, fowl, oily fish, fried foods, cured meats and cheeses.
