Tasting Notes
Bright, intense ruby. Concentrated and lush nose, aromas of rosewood, dark cherries and plums; cloves and cinnamon in the background. Juicy and silky on the palate, opening with rich notes of cherries, some raspberry, then unfolding with silky, yet dense tannin towards a long finish. A wine of great splendour.
More about the tastingClear ruby with a fine garnet rim. Clear and intense nose, with notes of raspberry and blackberry, very profound, savoury cedar in the background. Turns a great wheel on the palate! Blossoms fully, lots of intense and vivid fruit, cherry and blackberry, then opens up with dense tannins, salty, exciting until the long finish.
