Description

TASTING NOTES

What a nose: dark peony petals mix with violet and scented notes of both fresh and dried cherry. These aromas travel straight to the brain on a lifted note of polished wood.
The same aromatic allure becomes immediately apparent on the palate: cherry and fragrant petals enrobe and cushion the fine but utterly taut tannins.

Pairings

Structured dishes such as red meats, game. Wild mushroom ravioli. Excellent paired with hard or complex cheeses, such as pecorino. It is also highly enjoyable as a meditation wine.
