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
