TASTING NOTES
Sight: This wine reveals an attractive ripe cherry colour with lively ruby-coloured glints. Clear aspect.
Nose: This wine's bouquet is outstanding due to the elegance and abundance of its aromatic nuances. There are whiffs of well-seasoned fruit, rich hints of cocoa and vanilla, and reminiscences of minerals. Dark forest aromas can be detected in the background.
Taste: It strength, lushness and the maturity of its tannins can be appreciated in the mouth. The wood flavours are generously wrapped around the fruit but do not stand out. As a result, it is a tasty and balanced wine. The retronasal effect is elegantly long-lasting with a pleasant background that reminds us of its bouquet.
