Colour: Deep red with purple highlights.

Palate: Full, velvety attack. An enveloping texture with supple, well-integrated tannins. The fruit dominates, accompanied by mellow woody notes and a touch of liquorice. Long, suave finish with hints of ripe fruit and spices.

Suggested pairings
Ideal with grilled prime rib, roast rack of lamb with herbs, duck breast with figs or jugged hare. It also goes well with mature hard cheeses (comté, tomme) and certain moderately spicy dishes such as a tajine with prunes or a Provençal stew.
