👁 In the Glass:
Dark ruby with deep purple hues—concentrated and intense.

👃 On the Nose:
Complex and aromatic. Ripe blackberries and plums are joined by notes of garrigue herbs, black pepper, and cocoa, with subtle smoky and earthy undertones from oak ageing.

👅 On the Palate:
Full-bodied and velvety. Layers of dark fruit and spice unfold across a structured palate, with polished tannins and a mineral edge. The finish is long, warming, and laced with Mediterranean herb notes.

Perfect with grilled lamb, cassoulet, hearty ratatouille, or aged cheeses. A wine that thrives with bold, rustic dishes.

Delicious now with decanting, or cellar for 6–8 years to develop added nuance and harmony.
