Taster´s notes

This wine has a bright ruby color and purple highlights. It reveals a nose of black cherries, spicy and a beautiful minerality. On the palate, an incredible subtlety, tannins present but very supple, a retro-smell of wild strawberries and spices, intense and persistent aromas. A high-brouilly Brouilly. We recommend pairing this wine with red meat and game. We suggest a serving temperature of 16ºC.
