The wines of this appellation

the reds exhibit aromas of small red fruit (blackcurrant, raspberry, morello cherry, strawberry) with undertones of leather and undergrowth. They have body, are chewy, rich, robust and well-balanced. They pair nicely with pheasant and tenderloin steak with ceps. The whites, with their golden colour and aromas of cinnamon, exotic fruit, amber and walnut, are fat and elegant. They are the perfect partner for fish served with a sauce.
