Food Matching Note:

Will add an extra dimension when dining on truffles and mushroom based, creamy dishes, like a Piemontese risotto for example, or medium to lightly flavoured hard and creamy cheeses.

Tasting Note:

Vibrantly bright, with a touch of mahogany toward the rim. The nose is generous in its complexity with fine and elegant red berry fruits and hints of earthy spices. The palate is medium bodied, soft, juicy and lengthy showing piercing strawberry and cherry fruits layered over a carpet of mushrooms, strawberry leaf and forest floor complexity. The finish is firm, clean and lengthy.

Vinification Note:

The yield is kept respectably low in the vineyards and winemaking is of a very minimalist nature in the winery. Jean-Michel uses new oak to age his wines, but tempers it’s use in order to allow the fruit (that was so painstakingly and lovingly achieved over the previous year) to shine through and not be overpowered by clumsy barrel ageing.
