Tasting Notes
Deep dark ruby, dark core, purple reflections, delicate bright rim. Fresh plum fruit, a somewhat open bouquet, subtle hints of fine oak, orange zest. Powerful, somewhat restrained, discreet plum note, well-integrated tannins, chocolaty touch on the finish, seems closed overall at this stage, a substantial fruity food wine with future ageing potential.
