Notes:

This organic wine offers a dark vermilion colour.

The nose is soft and delicate, black and blue berries with a touch of vanilla.

On the palate, it starts softly but soon builds in intensity offering a medium bodied wine. Red fruits, a bit tannins and a bit too much alcohol is felt.

Good match with cured meats, tomato pasta dishes and medium cheeses.
