Tasting Notes
-
Garnet red color with purple tints. The nose is particularly expressive and reveals complex aromas of ripe fruits (raspberry) and spices and roasted and smoky notes.
On the palate, this wine proves very fine and elegant with wild fruit aromas (blackberry) and spices, and subtle oak. Its length is remarkable.
