TASTING

Dominated by the grape Syrah within its own tipicity and aromatic identity, one finds back all the aromatic features of this grape variety : bloody notes of wild red berries, as well as chocolate and garrigue notes.

The mouth is very delicate, fluid but with a great texture. Tannins are already well melted.

FOOD AND WINE PAIRING

A delight with grilled meats or as an accompaniment to a paëlla or with cow’s cheese. Excellent with a pigeon’s breast with its carcasse juice and cranberries served with root-vegetables.
