Best paired with other food than the one we ordered.
I drank it with my ex.
Red tinted with browny edges. Deep scent, like coffee. I noticed the 2013 a little astringent.
Bright cherry colour, high layer. Concentrated aroma of red fruit jam. Very long aftertaste.
As I had it between meals I could not pair it.
