| COD: France | VOLUME: 750ml |
| REGION: Minervois | AGING: 8 to 10 years |
DESCRIPTION
Black/Purple in colour, a nose of blackcurrant bathed in vanilla cream, clearly a wine of structure and line, beautifully delineated, focused with an influence far beyond its meagre Appellation: After coaxing, tapenade, garrigue herbs, blackberry, blueberry and cherry flavours, but it’s still nubile and a crime to drink this anytime soon. This is a wine of international style combining power and grace, super fine tannins will support a long life.
Gastronomic suggestions
It will highlight all roasted or grilled cuts of beef or game.
