Advice
Visual appearance
Ruby red colour with purple reflections.
At nose
The nose is powerful with aromas of strawberry and blackcurrant, enhanced by a touch of slightly caramelized and cocoa nutmeg.
On the palate
The palate is full-bodied, with silky and fresh tannins. The flavours of Burlat cherry, strawberry Charlotte are prolonged on notes of sweet pepper and mocha.
Food pairings
This wine will be the perfect partner for a duck breast or roast chicken, accompanied by a ratatouille.
