Pairs well with roast beef in red wine sauce, Lac meat pie, spiced game stew, aged cheddar cheese. Decant 30 minutes before serving. Serve between 16 and 18°C.

It has an intense and well-defined nose, where aromas of vanilla, licorice, leather, and ripe fruit jostle for position at the forefront. On the palate, it is powerful and warm, with beautiful tannins that are already very well integrated and just need to round out for another five good years.
