Wine Description
In the glass, it shows a deep ruby-purple hue. The bouquet reveals expressive aromas of dark berries, tobacco, graphite, spices, and crushed rose petals, alongside subtle notes of leather, menthol, and truffle. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied, with layers of blackcurrant, plum, and savoury herbs balanced by fine tannins and a fresh, structured finish.

Food Pairing
This wine’s rich texture and savoury depth make it a superb companion to roasted lamb with rosemary, braised short ribs, or duck confit. Earthy dishes such as mushroom risotto or truffle-infused pasta also highlight its complexity.
