Tasting Notes
Intense, deep ruby color. Depth, concentration and complexity in the nose, but also finesse. Aromas of red and black fruits. Like raspberry and cherry, blackberry and blueberry along with spices, tobacco and leather. On the palate it is silky but robust with gentle tannins and balanced acidity, the aromas of red and black fruits, cloves, black pepper and a touch of herbs stand out. Long aftertaste with great complexity.
