MORE INFORMATION:
Colour: Deep, rich ruby. Bouquet: Succulent ripe sweetness of red and black fruit with mulberry, raspberry and plums all mingling with fresh herbaceousness and a touch of spicy, toasted oak. Taste: The wine is medium full-bodied with a ripe friendliness in its tannin structure. A good balance of opulence and restraint hints at its viticultural origin as well as an above-average vintage. Its ample fruitiness is backed up by a food-friendly, elegant and lingering aftertaste. Ageing potential: Enjoy now or experience its complexities enhanced with a further 36 to 60 months of cellaring. Residual sugar: 1.9 g/l Total acidity: 5.3 g/l pH: 3,61 Total extract: 30.9 g/l Volatile acidity: 0,52 g/l Total SO2: 76 ppm (at release)

Enjoy it on its own or with some wonderful “sticky” spare ribs, Smoked pulled-pork burger (don’t forget the gherkins) or a simple bolognaise.
