Tasting Notes
Intense ruby-red color that tends to turn garnet with aging.
The nose is deep and intense, with notes of fully ripe dark fruits, blackcurrants, cherries, licorice, and graphite, with a touch of balsamic notes.
Elegant on the palate, it shows fine, soft, and round tannins. Long and fruity finish.
