Nose rich in ripe red fruits and jam with delicate floral returns, and then leave room for the elegant and rich tertiary notes of tobacco and toasting determined by the passage in French oak.
Full-bodied and full sip, with a long memory on the palate. Warmth and tannins draw the harmony and finesse of a balance in which alcohol is completed with that smooth and elegant tannin given by the six months of aging in French oak.
Perfect synthesis between alcohol, tannin and persistence, gives it that
predisposition to the perfect match with complex and strong structured foods, from fatty meats to cheeses, from braised meats to roasts.
