Character
Rich aromas of sandalwood, rhubarb and red berries, with a palate that adds hints of charcuterie and spicy tones. Gripping tannins provide a pleasant balance and good structure. Best served at 16-18°C.
Food pairing
Grilled duck breast garnished with thyme and baked peach.
Vinification
After harvest, the grapes are crushed in whole clusters without destemming and fermented on tank for 12 days. Minimal sulphur added. Two weeks of skin maceration after fermentation. Matured in French oak (500 litres) for 20 months before bottling.
