A deep ruby color with vibrant reflections greets the glass. Aromas of blackcurrant, plum, and a hint of spice fill the nose. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and smooth, with flavors of ripe dark fruits complemented by soft tannins and a touch of oak. The finish is long and velvety, with lingering notes of spice and earthiness. Best enjoyed with roasted meats, grilled vegetables, or aged cheeses like Comté.
