It begins without urgency. Just a glance, a closeness, a knowing. The bottle breathes open—dark ruby glinting like silk turned under candlelight. The aromatics rise: crushed cherry, rose petals, underbrush after rain. Old vine fruit with old soul restraint.
On the palate, it’s a slow unveiling. Red and black berries move in harmony—never forced, never rushed. The acidity is precise, poised. Tannins glide like fingers along a collarbone: elegant, structured, assured. There is a confidence in its quiet—an intimacy built not on volume, but on depth. And when the finish comes, it lingers. Soft. Spiced. Remembered.
Pair with duck breast in cherry reduction, black trumpet mushrooms, or a table set for two in absolute silence.
