Wine Description

This wine presents itself as an elegant red, distinguished by its finesse and complexity. In the glass, it shimmers in a clear ruby red. The aroma is dominated by red fruits such as cherries and raspberries, complemented by delicate floral notes. In the background, a subtle woodiness hints at aging in oak barrels, but it is by no means overpowering. When served chilled, the wine reveals a pleasant freshness that accentuates its elegance and fine structure. On the palate, the Pinot Noir is smooth, with well-integrated tannins and a balanced acidity that imparts liveliness.

Food Pairing

This wine pairs perfectly with dark meats and game dishes, as well as with cheese and dark chocolate. During the summer months, when served chilled, it is also ideal with various pasta dishes.
