picture of

Sparkling garnet red color with purple reflections in its youth. Clean nose with nice fresh and intense fruit. Red fruit with hints of red currants, cherries, strawberries and a hint of blackberries. Medium bodied with a remarkably fresh character that keeps the wine wonderfully tasty and captivating. The finish is lush and full of finesse.

Delicious with a fine piece of beef or veal, vegetarian dishes, Asian preparations and soft cheeses.
