Description
This wine displays a translucent bright-red colour, while the nose is filled with bright red fruits, including cherry, raspberry, and red currants. Subtle notes of dried herbs and tea leaf add further interest. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, offering a juicy core of red fruit flavours such as cranberry and pomegranate, enhanced by hints of clove spice. The tannins are silky and well-integrated, providing a smooth and elegant structure. Mid-palate, a gentle earthiness adds a layer of complexity. The finish is long and refreshing, with lingering notes of red fruit and a touch of spice, leaving an impression of finesse and elegance.
Food Pairing
Dishes that will complement the wines red fruit profile, spice and earthy character include roasted duck with cranberry sauce, grilled lamb chops with rosemary and thyme, herb-crusted pork tenderloin, Mediterranean vegetable casserole, goat-cheese-and-beet salad, and Prosciutto-wrapped figs.
