“On the nose, blackcurrant is ever-present, then as the wine opens up, more complex aromas of baked fruit and leather emerge. Blackcurrant is paired with a citrus note on a full-bodied, fresh palate, built on well-integrated tannins. The finish features subtle vanilla-like oak and a smoky note. ” (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2015) A wine with a sunny Mediterranean character that pairs perfectly with this moussaka recipe.

About the wine:

On the nose, blackcurrant is prominent, and as the wine opens up, more complex aromas of baked fruit and leather emerge. On the palate, the blackcurrant is paired with a citrus note, resulting in a full-bodied and fresh wine built on well-integrated tannins. The tasting experience concludes with subtle vanilla-like oak and a smoky note.
