TASTING NOTE
Vintage
Opaque ruby hued, after a swirl this wine continues to transform and take shape in the glass. Black cherry, ripe plum and red liquorice merge with blueberry crumble to create a dark and resonant bouquet. Notes of of tart cranberry jam and boysenberry amalgamate with lifted sage aromas that gives way to an undercurrent of savory bresaola and spice.
Crunchy, red fruits dominate the front palate, fuelled by flavours of pomegranate and redcurrants. A mirrored fresh acidity is balanced by a dusting of fine tannin that lingers after the first sip. Blackberry, rhubarb and baked plums mix with a bone broth salinity and are caressed by lightly charred oak notes that appear briefly on the back palate.
A stylish and approachable example of a Pinot Noir and Gamay blend that enraptures and refreshes at the same time.
Food Match
Drink with roasted summer tomatoes and chèvre served on grilled ciabatta.
