TASTING NOTES
This great wine has an attractive cherry red color with a ruby rim. Clean and intense.
Fine nuances of ripe, candied and raisin-like red fruit (berries, orange peel and plums), minerals (graphite), balsamics and light hints of violets, cocoa, butter, tobacco and liquorice dominate the nose.
On the palate it is flavorsome and well-structured, with hints of red fruit (currants) and raisins (plums), spices (cinnamon), light leathers, noble aromatic woods (cedar), cocoa and excellent smooth and ripe tannins. Very long and complex. A great wine with a long life ahead of it.
