Destí is intense dark-cherry red in color with a garnet rim. Complex on the nose with aromatic notes of red fruit, especially raspberries and redcurrants, balanced by spicy tones against a backdrop of cassis. It has a balsamic taste across the palate, with hints of sloes and pomegranates. Elegant and silky, it is well balanced with sweet, rounded tannins that lead to a smooth, lingering finish.
The sweet quality to Destí is the perfect match for lean dishes such as potted lobster or roasted turbot with potato gratin and cured ham. It is also ideal for accompanying grilled red meat basted with aromatic herbs.
93 Points - Wine Spectator
A concentrated red, with racy acidity driving a finely knit range of cherry and plum reduction, wild herb, iron-laced mineral and spice. This is rich and expressive, yet silky and graceful on the palate, with fine, taut tannins providing good tension on the firm finish. Grenache, Carignan and Syrah.

94 Points - Wine Spectator
A graceful red, displaying lovely equilibrium and seamless knit, with flavors of blackberry paste, fig cake and dried thyme and anise that are simultaneously rich and mouthwatering on the palate, underscored by an expressive streak of stony minerality. Reveals refined, chalky tannins, which provide fine structure throughout and emerge to firm the lasting finish. Grenache, Carignan and Syrah.
