This one doesn’t just walk in — it owns the room, with an intensity that stops conversations and clinks glasses mid‑air. The colour is deep, golden, unapologetically dressed to impress.
On the nose, it leans in close with roasted hazelnut, smoky granite, and something faintly floral tucked behind the minerality. At first it seems polite. But then you taste it — and it fills every corner of your mouth with curves and confidence. There’s a creamy weight to the texture, like satin sliding over warm skin, and just the faintest brush of wood to keep things serious.
The finish is long, deliberate, and just when you think it’s done, it whispers back.
Serve it with pâtés and rillettes that melt into toast, fish cloaked in sauce, marinated game that leaves your fingers sticky, or a baeckeofe shared with someone you probably shouldn’t have invited.
It’s not shy. It knows what it’s worth. And so will you.
