Fleshy, rich aromas of raspberry/red plum, fresh cedar, thyme and almost cinnamon- like wood spice.
Taste
In the mouth, the flesh is pulpy and generous. The fruit is present, rich and ripe. On the finish, the length is excellent, this wine never leaves you.
Pairing
Grilled beef, roast lamb, duck, mushrooms, truffle dishes and aged semi-hard cheese. Japanese cuisine: lean Wagyu steak, lightly sweetened sukiyaki, beef shigureni and duck roast. Thai cuisine: mild massaman beef curry, smoky charcoal-grilled meat such as mu yang, and dishes with a rich demi-glace-style sauce. Avoid highly chilli- or lime-driven dishes.
Vinification
Fermentation using yeast native. Matured in new barrels for one year, then the best barrels are selected.
