Compatibility

With food, the superb creaminess and aromatic complexity lend the wine bold, vibrant pairings with foie gras, sweet and savoury cured meats, the richest cheeses, washed rind cheeses.

Color

The color is wonderfully warm, reminiscent of very old champagnes.

Scent

The first aromas are powerful, with cherry jam, warm spices (turmeric), almond and maraschino, against a background of meat juices providing depth. The expression then becomes subtler and more complex: chocolate, preserved orange peel, cherries in eau-de-vie and quince jelly, with a hint of cinnamon, and then, gradually, a touch of classic rancio.

Taste

In the mouth, very supple and smooth, we are immediately captivated by its caressing creamy texture. This fullness is confirmed during the tasting, and then gradually the subtle champagne character of this Ratafia refreshes the overall effect. This late summer sweetness gives us delicious aromas of dried apricot, cocoa and cherry. The aftertaste is long and clean, with a pleasant acidity that leaves the mouth completely clean and fresh.
