Deep purple color with pungent aromas of black plums and jasmine. Full rich palate embraced by firm tannins and fresh acidity. Flavors of mocha, black cherry compote and creamy vanilla ending with echoes of dried herbs. Long and elegant finish. Great with full-flavored "country style" cooking such as: Venison or Rabbit stew; Ossobuco; Roast leg of lamb; Spaghetti with spicy tomatoes sauce; Pasta with sausage, pepper and onions; Roast duck with green peppercorn sauce.
