Tasting Notes
- Color: Deep, inky garnet, indicating profound concentration.
- Nose: An intense and layered bouquet featuring ripe black fruits (blackberry, black cherry), seamlessly integrated with notes of crushed black pepper, licorice, and a hint of violet. Mature vintages reveal complex tertiary aromas of truffle, leather, and smoked meats.
- Palate: Full-bodied and authoritative, with a powerful structure defined by fine, yet firm, tannins. The wine maintains a beautiful balance between fruit intensity and the characteristic granite-driven minerality. The finish is exceptionally long and memorable.

- Pairings: Red Wine Braised Beef Short Ribs, Venison Loin with a Black Pepper Crust, or a classic Truffle Risotto.
- Cellaring: Capable of aging gracefully for 10 to 25 years, often longer.
