Notes:

Deep purple, almost opaque colour, rather thick and silky.

Dense nose bringing aromas of ripe plumbs, toast, vanilla and tobacco, with some hints of cumin and spices.

On the palate this wine is pure silk. Lots of dark fruits, mostly ripe plumbs, black berries and spices. Well balanced and sumptuous with a great creamy finish. A bit tannic but mostly unnoticeable and ideal if pairing with steaks.

Don’t get confused by this wine’s elegance as it is a proper full bodied wine.

Great match with beef steak, and grilled red meats.
