Visual aspect: a vivid garnet-red with bluish tints.
Nose: intense, full-bodied aromas of small black and red fruits (a touch
of Crème de Cassis and raspberry jelly), as well as hints of pepper, mint and spices (cinammon, vanilla) enhanced by a woody fragrance.
Palate: pure, noble substance,
with a tightly-knit, silky texture and very distinct tannins. Spicy and concentrated on the finish.
Match with food: venison stew.
Comment: a truly authentic, concentrated Bordeaux that possesses marvellous purity.
