A classic elegance Bordeaux style of wine has a deep intense dark ruby colour. The nose shows a vibrant profusion of blackcurrant, dark chocolate and vanilla characters with a good balance of ripe fruits and soft tannins on the palate. The mouthfeel is a complexity of rich floral flavours with a broad mid-palate and a long finish.

Roast lamb with rosemary is a perfect match for this elegant wine, as is oxtail and roast chicken with butternut.
