What The Fellas Say

Like biting into a rich Christmas cake packed with nuts and fruits and spices and soaked for a year in brandy. Your mouth does a back flip and a yeehaw and basically just collapses in ecstasy. The flavours thicken and deepen and fill your whole body. Coffee and tobacco and dark plums. WTF? Did you die and end up in a Victorian gentleman’s library with a roaring fire in the hearth and a copy of Moby Dick resting on the side table?

What The Sommelier Says

A deep ruby colour, with an intense aroma full of toast and vanilla and wild fruits and spices. Excellent well-structured body, fresh and complex with lots of character and elegance and a taste of black cherry and plum. Delightful long finish.

Pairs well with…

…with duck confit, foie gras, oven-roasted veal, roast kid goat and sausages
