Chateau l'Ormeau Vieux 2011
Food pairing
Excellent with: duck terrine with pistachios, fish soup, shellfish, duck breast with honey, goat cheese or cherry clafoutis.
Tasting notes
Beautiful bright and strong ruby color. The nose is full and tender. It exhales aromas of ripe fruit, with length and flexibility around smoky and spicy notes. The palate is elegant and nuanced. Both fresh and fruity, it reveals superb flavors of red berries, slight menthol touches and ends with crispy tannins.
