"On the nose, blackcurrant is omnipresent, then aeration reveals more complex aromas of cooked fruit and leather. Blackcurrant is found again, combined with a lemony note, on a full and fresh palate, built on well-integrated tannins. The tasting ends with a subtle vanilla woodiness and a smoky note. " (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2015) A sunny Mediterranean character that will pair beautifully with this moussaka recipe.
