Dégustation

Deep, dark, ruby-red colour with purple highlights.
Rich, complex bouquet of red fruit (morello cherry), wax, and Virginia tobacco.
Starts out smooth and straightforward on the palate. Generous, refined, and well-balanced with beautiful structure, as well as wonderful concentration and delicious flavours of ripe red and black fruit. The tannin is particularly soft. The aftertaste features hints of sweet spice (cinnamon). The wine shows great vivaciousness and freshness that make it very appetising.

2 Stars

This equal blend of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon has an intense bouquet of red-berry fruit, blackcurrants, and blueberries, with smooth oak overtones. It is long, very well-balanced, and fruity on the palate, as well as full-bodied, rich, and fresh, backed up by firm tannins. Characterful, elegant, and harmonious. 2019-2022. Food & wine pairing: Rib of beef
