Tasting
The wine shows a deep ruby robe with garnet glints. The nose shows blackcurrant and ripe cherry aromas combine with delicate woody notes and spices. The palate is supple and elegant, and lifted by pleasantly lingering woody notes. The red fruits flavours assail the palate while keeping very silky tannins. The final reveals a good length.
