Dégustation

Intense, cherry red colour. Nose is particularly pleasant with notes of ripe red fruit, mixed with hints of spice and vanilla. On the palate, very pleasant balance between structure and volume, offering good drinkability. The red fruit aromas, already perceived on the nose, are found here, where they blend elegantly with some more woody notes. Beautiful tannic structure gives it a good ageing potential and it can be left to age a little longer to appreciate all its qualities.
