Its heritage nods to an ancient viticultural tradition, delivering a sophisticated drink with a unique character. This wine reveals a striking balance of acidity and tannins, complemented by a ripe, fruity essence of wild berries, hints of dried herbs and a subtle undertone of coffee. The dark ruby hue is pleasing to the eye, poised to elevate your dining experience. Its versatile earthy flavour and elegant maturity pairs excellently with hard cheeses and richly flavoured meat dishes.
