Tasting notes

Served at 15°-17° C This plot-selected vintage expresses its aromatic range of wood fire, incense and menthol with richness and ambition. The palate is particularly velvety with a hint of dark chocolate which reinforces the aromatic complexity of the wine. A perfect accompaniment for a well matured prime rib.
