Description
Expressive aromas that are reminiscent of black fruits, spices, pepper and leather. Strong in the mouth, this is a highly smooth wine with fine and firm tannins. Genuine, markedly structured and full-bodied, with a long and persistent finish which allows for perceiving the subtle smoked notes resulting from its ageing in oak barrels.
Pairings
Perfect to enjoy game meats with intense flavours such as deer or wild boar marinated in herbs, served with roasted vegetables.
Suggestions
Recommended wine serving temperature: entre 16°C y 18°C.
