Tasting
This wine displays a deep ruby color with intense purple highlights. The nose opens with aromas of strawberry, raspberry, and violet. On the palate, it is both generous and structured, with well-integrated tannins. Fleshy and full-bodied, its roundness brings perfect harmony.
Food pairings
Solid and fleshy, this is a true charmer. With firm yet beautifully integrated tannins, it naturally pairs with flavorful meats such as roasted, braised, or sauced veal, leg of lamb, feathered game, and grilled pork. A classic roast beef will also succumb to its character. On a cheese board: Mont d'Or, Vacherin, Tomme de Savoie, Reblochon, and Cîteaux are ideal companions.
