Ruby in colour with a purple rim, characteristic of young wine. Fruity and intense on the nose. Initially there is some tannin in the mouth, followed by sweetness and fullness, strong fruitiness, reminiscent of strawberry with liquorice touches. The final back-taste is pleasant and lasting. Food Pairing: Best served with red or white meat, roast lamb, pork, beef, game, poultry, stews, rice dishes, pulses, mushrooms and mature cheese.
