It pairs well with roast meats, game dishes, or hard cheeses, and is best served at around 16–18 °C. It has a garnet colour. On the nose, violet, wild berries, and bergamot. On the palate, full-bodied, with firm tannins and a floral finish. It pairs well with roast meats, pasta, and medium-aged cheeses. Serve at 12–14 °C. At 12.5% ABV, it comes in a 0.75 L bottle. To get the most from this red, open the bottle a few minutes before serving and pour it into a wide-bowled glass, which allows the aromas to breathe. For younger, more concentrated wines, a brief decanting helps soften the tannins. Store the bottle on its side, in a cool, dark place without temperature fluctuations. Once opened, reseal the bottle and keep it in the refrigerator to preserve its aromas.
