Description:
This wine is as powerful on the nose as it is fine on the palate. The aromas of black cherries and blackberries dominate at first, then let emerge notes of garrigue with the flavor of airing. A silky structure supports the ample and sufficiently persistent flesh. To taste on tasty dishes (game in sauce, stir-fried veal …). Being unfiltered, decanting a few hours before serving is recommended
