Appearance: The colour is fairly dark, deep ruby.

Nose: Its aromas are reminiscent of springtime gardens, small red fruits (raspberry, strawberry, cherry) and black fruits (blackberry, blackcurrant).

Palate: Robust without losing its distinction, racy and fruity, with a firm, structured body, rich in chewiness and pleasant tannins.

Ageing: 12/14 months in French oak barrel (228 l fine-grain medium toast) and 2/3 months in stainless steel tank before bottling.

Pairing: It pairs exceptionally well with heartier, slightly more rustic meats and strong, medium-aged cheeses.
