On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, with firm tannins and a well-integrated acidity that adds freshness to the richness. The dark fruit flavors continue, with added layers of mocha, leather, and subtle herbs. There’s a nice minerality running through the wine, which contributes to its overall complexity. The finish is long and persistent, with the tannins softening over time, making this a wine that will continue to evolve and improve with age. It pairs wonderfully with hearty dishes like roast beef, lamb, or rich stews, but also holds up beautifully on its own for those who enjoy a more robust, structured Burgundy.
