Roast chicken or rare duck
Vivid purple violet colour with very appealing violet, rose petal, raspberry fruit, and white pepper, wet stone aromas, on the palate its medium-bodied plush, and fresh with supple well-integrated tannins.
It shows ample juicy strawberry, red currant, some blueberry, red cherry, sour plum, spice flavours, and a hint of cacao with a lingering clean refreshing finish and a hint of savouriness.
