Visual aspect: a shining, crystalline, vivid garnet-red hue with bold ruby-red tints.
Nose:
very fine and elegant, evoking concentrated structure, with scents of
small black fruits (blackcurrant, plum) delicately sprinkled with
spices.
Palate: magnificent first taste, crisp on the same flavours
as the aromas perceived on the nose. Powerful on the finish, excellent
and intense.
Match with food: sautéed lamb with wild mushrooms.
Comments: a wine of rare perfection. Superb!
