Krasno Syrah

Colour: Dark ruby red with expresso brown hues

Aroma: The herbal-spicy aroma evokes black pepper, mint and pine wood. In the background we meet a pleasant violet flower bouquet, fresh fruity notes of blueberry and plum as well as cocoa butter.

Taste: The mouthfeel is rich and smooht. The finish is slightly spicy with a pleasant silky finish.

Food pairing: Syrah can be served along a wide range of spicy meat dishes. We recommend it combined with beef steak with green pepper, various steaks in pepper and garlic sauces, grilled porc liver with anice and mint in wine sauce, as well as florentine steaks and spicy mature cheeses.
