Tasting Profile & Food Pairing In the glass, it shows dried cherry, cranberry, rose and red plum. Winemaking and maturation add cedar, clove and old oak, while time brings forest floor, leather, tea and truffle. The palate is medium-bodied with medium-high acidity and medium tannins, carrying the flavours into a focused, persistent finish. Its appeal comes from definition, proportion and the clarity of its site rather than overt showmanship. Serve it with roast pigeon, game birds or mushroom dishes; those dishes echo the wine's savoury detail while allowing its freshness to reset the palate.
