Tasting notes: Lovely, unblemished deep ruby-red colour; full, absorbing nose with nice hints of red fruit, jam and spices; warm, dry taste which is luscious and lingering

Food pairings: A well-structured, full-bodied wine which goes well with flavoursome stewed and braised red meat dishes and mature cheeses.

Storage: Best kept at a constant temperature in the dark and silence of an underground cellar
