An elegant, medium-bodied red, with light, taut tannins framing a pure beam of black currant and accents of mineral, star anise and dried thyme. Fresh and lovely, with a lingering finish. Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc.
Food pairing The fresh profile and moderate tannins offer immediate drinkability. With food, reach for a porchetta sandwich, roasted chicken or game birds such as quail. Hard cheeses with age are an ideal exploration with the wine.
HOW IT LOOKS Beautiful, deep, ruby red with a dark purple core. The edges are pale, showing its youth.
HOW IT SMELLS Notes of bright, fresh, red fruit such as currants, raspberries and blackberries jump out of the glass. Slight hint of candied fruit, cherry or strawberry. Spicy notes of liquorice, pepper and savoury herbs finish out this beautiful bouquet of aromas!
HOW IT TASTES Keeping up with the nose, the palate is explosive with red fruits and spicy notes. Cracked pepper, cherry liqueur and figgy flavours create a fun texture to this wine. The acidity and tannins are present but not aggressive; providing ease when pairing with food! The finish is medium in length with savoury herbs and wild berry compote. This wine is drinking youthful but with a little age, these flavours will develop some real complexity-worth the wait!
RECOMMENDED FOOD PAIRING Pizza, cooked on a hot stone, loaded with artichokes, peppers, ham, mushrooms and mozzarella, or a simple plate of hard, aged cheeses would be a delight!
