“Les Charmilles”

Des Hauts de Palette

AOC BORDEAUX ROUGE

TASTING

Tasty aromas of sweet spices and fresh grapes are exhaled from the glass.

After a smooth attack, the palate is full, creamy and gourmet, supported by silky, smooth and uneven tannins, which reinforce this pleasant side.

This Bordeaux exhibits a dark ruby red colour, sublimated by purplish reflections.

FOOD PAIRING

Serve with lamb ribs, veal meatballs or duck tournedos.
