Tasting notes:
Notes of red fruits (cherry, strawberry) and violet are present on the nose, associated with aromas related to the garrigue of roasted and empyreumatic coffee.
On the palate, we find this bouquet with, in addition, aromas of cocoa. The attack is very round and continues with a very flexible structure.
Serving suggestions:
Given its structure, this wine will express itself on many dishes. Its typical aromatic character gives it of course a predilection for weddings to Mediterranean cuisine, but its potential is much broader.
For a perfect expression of this wine, a serving temperature of around 16 to 18 ° C will be ideal.
