Taste
Beautiful body in the mouth, elegant structure. Persistence of the finish. Very nice balance.
Pairing
Will easily pair with red meats, game and terrines. In addition, it is ideally suited to finer dishes such as a casserole of sweetbreads with cream. Japanese cuisine: lean Wagyu steak, lightly sweetened sukiyaki, beef shigureni and duck roast. Thai cuisine: mild Massaman beef curry, mu yang, braised beef and dishes with a rich demi-glace-style sauce.
Vinification
Harvested at optimal ripeness, bunches are destemmed and the grapes sorted a second time before fermentation, using the “vinification intégrale” method into demi-muids (500L oak barrels). Only natural yeasts are used. Then the wine rests for 24 to 30 months.
