Tasting
| Color Desc | More orange than pink |
| Aroma | The bouquet bursts forth with raspberries and wild strawberries, persistent powdery notes of iris and violet, orange oil, saffron, cassis, fig, gingerbread, and licorice. |
| Palate | Tactile, full-bodied, and silky, unfolding like a caress. Generous and creamy, framed by fine tannic grip and a tension from fresh acidity. |
| Finish | Affirmed, persistent finish redolent of peonies and white pepper, with a long, toasty finish of bakery and brioche. |
| Food Pairing | Weever fish, sea urchins, turnip greens, sumac, artichoke, pork belly, kale, chili pepper |
