Tasting Notes
Deep dark ruby garnet, violet reflections. Very spicy on the nose, nougat notes with tobacco undertones, undergrowth. Edgy tannins on the palate, very vegetal overall impression at the moment, powerful but still brittle, dries out a little on the finish, not yet drinkable, still needs time in the bottle.
