Tasting notes
Colour: Intense ruby with garnet highlights.
Nose: Expressive, with notes of ripe red fruit (cherry, raspberry), redcurrant, dried flowers, hints of cedar and sweet spices. Perfectly integrated ageing.
Palate: Supple attack, elegant mid-palate, with mellow tannins and fine finesse. Good freshness that lengthens the wine, finishing with floral, spicy and slightly woody aromas. A balanced, accessible wine, both classic and charming.
