Complex,  very elegant nose: ripe red fruit, strawberries jam, meaty notes, some foggy tertiary notes like bark and wet leaves. A hint of balsamic and black pepper.
 
High spreading acidity and high velvety tannins. Long lasting aroma with great resonance nose-palate. Savory dry finish.
 
Fine meat recepies. Roasts, braised meats, gently grilled, slow cooked meats, particularly beef. Truffle risotto. Fine mature cheeses
