General

Tasting Notes (recommended):Bright robe with some crimson hues. A woody bouquet with some spicy and toasted aromas. The mouth is round and luscious, well-balanced with a lovely aromatic length. This vintage will benefit from being kept 5 to 6 years after the harvest. To be served at room temperature, with some cooked pork meats, red meats and cheeses.
