"La robe est de couleur est rouge grenat intense. Le nez est fidèle au nom et nous charme par son parfum de chocolat noir. On y décèle aussi des arômes de fruits rouges mûrs et de clou de girofle. La bouche est riche et racée. Des flaveurs de fruits rouges mûrs, de chocolat noir et de fumée. C’est un vin bien équilibré aux tannins soyeux."
Wine & food pairing
"Il accompagnera à merveille un filet mignon, les gibiers, l’agneau et les viandes grillées."
