Tasting notes: On the nose the wine reveals black fruits, from wild cherries to black currants and blueberries with scents of dark chocolate and coffee. The silky attack on the palate betrays integrated tannins and a fine structure with vegetal and spicy notes. This wine represents the great expression of the terroir in Drăgășani and it has a great ageing potential.
Food suggestion: It pairs great with slowly cooked meat in wine sauce.
