Tasting Note
BEautiful and dense ruby red colour. The bouquet reminds fruity notes such as blackcurrant and blackberry with vanilla hints. On the palate, the attack is generous and fleshy. Tannins are firm with a straight thread. The balance is confirmed by a persistent and robust finish.
Food Pairing
The wine will be excellent company red meat and poultry.
Awards
Decanter: 90 Points
“There is real charm and typicity here. There are touches of cedary oak with firm tannins and evidence of careful extraction. It needs a few more years to soften and open, but you are getting a Pauillac that wants to be a Pauillac, and one that is good value. 25% new oak.” Decanter
