TEXTURED & COMPLEX Tasting Note: On the nose, an enticing bouquet of wild blackberry, Morello cherry and fig, woven with subtle violet petal, cracked black pepper, licorice and a h int of menthol. The palate is medium-bodied and dry-textured, with layers of dark-fruit purity framed by fine, powdery tannins. Crushed granite minerality and a cool, peppery finish carry through in perfect tension. Vibe: A true Chiroubles for foodies - structured yet magically light on its feet, powerful yet ethereal, precise yet playful.
