Tasting Notes
Sparkling, rich ruby with a slight garnet shimmer. Compact and dense on the nose, initially showing notes of cedar wood and ink lead, followed by rich wild raspberry. On the palate, an exciting blend of ripe, present fruit notes and fine spice, opens with grippy, fine-meshed tannins, with a beautiful melting finish.
