Tasting notes:
A rich and ambitious red from a strict selection of grapes and a perfectly mastered ageing. Decant 1 or 2 hours before serving to appreciate while still young. Colour: very beautiful dark dress, almost black. The nose remains fresh despite a year of ageing. Wood does not dominate, on the contrary, it emphasizes the fruit and strengthens it. Elegant notes of blond tobacco, curry and encaustic appear on the aeration. On the palate, the silky tannins, typical of beautiful syrahs, bring elegance. Always, there is the Cévennes freshness.
Pairing:
This beautiful full-bodied Syrah will age for the coming two years. Already delicious after you have aerated the wine, eat it with a juicy steak, tender lamb, an aged cheddar or gouda.
