Tasting Notes
Terroir presents sandy clay soil facing East, which ensures freshness. Wine Spector describes this wine as "dark and winey, with delicious waves of cassis, raspberry paste, and plum puree coursing through, laced with licorice and tar notes that help extend the finish. Late flashes of singed anise, bitters, and wood spice add an alluring echo. Best from 2023 through 2038."
Pairing Recommendation
The winemaker recommends pairing this wine with veal with carrots.
