Tasting notes
Lively ruby red with garnet hues. The aromas are fruity with notes of cherry jam, dried plum and toasted carob with hints of coffee, milk chocolate, toffee. Opening into the glass it expresses spicy aromas of cinnamon, star anise and black pepper with pleasant puffs of cinchona, blond tobacco and leather. The olfactory amplitude anticipates the great elegance and nobility of taste. It is a warm wine with a refined structure with paradigmatic tannins for their integration and therefore a rare workmanship. The acidity supports and participates in the dynamics of the wine making the sip exhilarating and highly drinkable. The aftertaste is very long in persistence with toasted aromas and a pleasant dehydrated orange and saline minerality.
