A high-classed wine that merits its awards. lt can be tasted in the following year of its production, but it will improve over five years or more in ageing. A structured wine, powerful and fruity at the same time. Blend of aromas such as toasted bread, honey wax and white fruits. The wine combines well with fish, white meats, Mediterranean kitchen (tuna à la provençale, cold ratatouille) and with certain goat cheeses.
