WINEMAKING
Matured for 16 months in a combination of new (25%) and 2-year-old (75%) French oak barrels. 

TASTING NOTE
Bright aromas of tree-ripened cherries and dark chocolate dominate the nose with contrasting notes of French tarragon bringing a savoury balance. On the palate, classic black pepper and niçoise olive flavours are supported by a fine-grained, integrated tannin structure. The contrast of ripe fruits and savoury herbs carries through in the long, silky finish.

FOOD PAIRING
Seared black pepper and rosemary crusted tuna with charred shishito peppers
