Region: Bordeaux

Grapes: Merlot, Cabernet, Cabernet Franc

Aging: French Oak

Alcohol: 13.5%

Notes: Organic, Sustainable

Winery notes:  The nose opens on aromas of ripe fruit such as Burlat cherry. Airing brings black fruit notes to the fore, especially blackberry, Burlat cherry and bilberry, along with a touch of mild spice. A rich and smooth taste which expresses all the fruit on the nose leads into a full mid-palate with hints of cinnamon and a round, powerful finish on substantial and very well-rounded tannins.

Tasting notes: On palate, it is smooth, succulent and fruit forward, with strong cherry and bilberry notes. Fine tannic structure, delicate oak notes on the finish along with notes of spice, such as cinnamon, white pepper, and roasted coffee bean. The drinking window on this one has only just opened up so drink now or age it for awhile.

Pairing: Ideal when paired with grilled meats, roasts, duck, hard cheeses and chocolate.

Giulio Cocchi's original recipe remains unchanged from it's introduction in 1891 and has since attracted many imitations. In this wine you will find a richness and complexity of lovely flavors that is unparalleled in wines in its category.

Pairings: Born in Piedmont in the last century, it soon spread thanks to the perfect balance between bitter and sweet.

It was often served gently heated with an orange peel. Exceptional with chocolates!
