([class.varietaldesc])

An elegant example of this noble variety, showing layers of ripe blackcurrants, red berry, mulberry and strawberry flavours with hints of cedar and walnuts. A balanced wine with lots of fruit, and some spice and tobacco on the palate. The King of Red Wines, even better with ageing!

Paired well with Mushroom-dishes, or meals containing mushrooms, like mushroom Stroganoff. Also rich tomato or cheese-based sauces with a marinated ribeye steak.
