Nose

Its intensity translates on the nose into emphatic impressions of ripe wild blackberry, tobacco leaf, and interwoven nuances of pungent hay and wild herbs.

Palate

Its long maturation in oak succeeds in tempering its vigorous tannins to judicious, elegant proportions. Overall, this is a wine for those who know how to patiently wait

Food Pairing

Thanks to its crisp acidity and tannins, Wildbacher is the perfect partner to a wide array of fine, meat-based dishes. Slow-cooked preparations and highly-flavoured stews and braises are best, since they complement the decisive, self-confident sensations that are the hallmarks of this wine.
