Tasting notes

Cabernet Sauvignon 40%, Merlot 40%, Nebbiolo 20%.

Deep, full, pure amaranth.

Elegant and defined aromas of pulpy black fruit and dark spices. Black currant, well-integrated herbaceous notes and a pleasant licorice.

Enveloping taste, ample, tannic and fresh at the right point, leaving a good spicy flavor and of delicate herbs.

Multi-faceted and profound, it calls for sustained meat dishes. Red meat, a succulent rib of beef enriched with spices.

Service temperature : 18 °C
