Tasting Notes: The Sommelier’s View

Our expert sommelier describes the experience:

• **Color:** Deep, intense garnet.
• **Nose:** A complex, inviting bouquet of ripe black fruit (blackberry, blackcurrant), evolving into subtle notes of blond tobacco, licorice, and toasting from the oak.
• **Palate:** Full-bodied and powerful on the entry. The tannins are fine and silky, providing structure without harshness. The finish is long, persistent, and beautifully marked by minerality.

• **Food Pairing:** Prime Rib Roast, Beef Wellington, Truffle Pasta, Aged Cheddar.
• **Cellar Potential:** 8 to 15 years. This wine will reward patience.
