Notes: This wine is produced from the grapes of vineyards that are not existing anymore: we tow the vines away immediately after the 1997 harvest. So, this wine is unique and it will never be repeated. Refined in French barriques made in mixed woods for 18 months, this ruby red wine has a distinctive violet bright hue, is nicely and markedly flowing, broad, with a pronounced vanilla, blackberry and violet nose, fine, delicate and lingering; dry, savory, warm, of good weight and structure in balance, tannic in the right degree, attractively smooth and elegant, bitterish on finish and impressive wine, yet pleasantly drinkable. Served at the optimum temperature of 18 °C it is perfect with roast pork or beef, mixed boiled meat and roast veal shin.
