This wine has fantastic notes of juicy plums, blackberries and mulberries with an evocative savoury edge of earthy mushrooms, truffle and spice. The tannins while varietal and powerful are beautifully fine and controlled to enhance the palate.
Food - Pairs perfectly with fine cuts of beef or a seared crispy duck breast in a jus.
