TASTING NOTE
Pale crimson red in colour with soft aromatics of fresh red berries, raw cocoa, and a
hint of Italian herbs. An early drinking wine with medium body and smooth finish,
highlighted by flavours of red and black berries and touches of fine oak. Firm tannin
and fresh acidity make for great pairing opportunities with Italian dishes.
FOOD RECOMMENDATION
Pairs well with Mediterranean vegetables dishes and haloumi, tapas or Italian
classics.
