Tasting Notes
Intense ruby red with violet hues, bright and dense. Fragrant and balanced, with notes of black cherry,
blackberry, and dried violet.
These are followed by hints of black pepper, Mediterranean scrub, and a subtle toasty note that
enriches the profile without overpowering it.
The palate is lively yet complex, with fruity and spicy notes and a clean, persistent finish.
