Plum, blackberries with some notes of ripe raspberry and white pepper emerging. Round and full with soft tannins and flavors of plum, berry and cherry. Well balanced with good acidity. A long persistent finish with ripe red fruits.

Goes perfectly with roasted meats, gazpacho, fresh grilled pate and mild cheeses.
