Deep ruby with a slight purple hue β polished, vibrant, and inviting.

Medium to full-bodied with a silky, structured texture, revealing a rich core of ripe black fruits, mulberry, and blueberry compote. Fine-grained tannins and vibrant acidity create perfect balance, while notes of pepper spice, savory herbs, and toasted oak lead into a long, elegant finish with lingering minerality and freshness.

Perfect with slow-cooked lamb shoulder, chargrilled ribeye, beef brisket, or wild mushroom polenta β a versatile and classy match for bold, savory dishes.
β³ Ageing Potential:
Outstanding now, but will age beautifully over 10β15 years, developing complex layers of leather, tobacco, and earthy truffle with time.
