Tasting Notes
Deep dark ruby, opaque core, purple reflections, delicate rim brightening. Nuances of cranberry, tree resin, subtle smoky wood, green tea, semi-bitter chocolate, peppery undertones, some plum and the eponymous floral notes. Also gingerbread (from the wood). On the palate, the wine is dense in a relaxed way, well endowed with tactile minerality, and despite the round, supple body, there is also juiciness and elegance. The finish develops a distinctive saltiness.
