Tasting Note:

A Fallon & Byrne exclusive, this is the second edition of Marqués de Tomares Cohiba partnership and the first to be sold in Ireland. The collaboration comes from a wish to celebrate the affinities in these two rarefied worlds. Both the wine and the cigar start with the highest quality raw ingredients and involve a double fermentation, expert care in production and a deep respect for the time it takes for each one to reach their full potential.

A subtle, delicate, elegant wine with aromas of spices, cocoa and coffee, with a dark, intense and bright cherry colour. Great finesse and long finish on the palate. These beautiful bottles are collectors’ items in themselves, and the wine inside is equally extraordinary. A great Father’s Day gift.

Pairing suggestions: BBQ, charcuterie platter, game, pork with plums, red meats.
