FOOD MATCHING NOTE:
A wine deserving of exceptional cuisine – a tender fillet mignon pan fried until medium rare or a vegetarian version of Beef Wellington made with shitake and chanterelle mushrooms. Perfect with cheese too, especially hard cheeses such as artisan Cheddar or Comté.
TASTING NOTE:
The hallmark of ‘Les Deux Barriques’ is finesse not power. Explosive aromas and flavours of astonishingly ripe red fruits interlaced with mocha and seductively sweet oaky nuances crescendo in an enticingly smooth and silky palate of intricacy and surprising delicacy.
