Bright, intense ruby with a slight garnet rim. Very intense and inviting nose, shows beautiful playfulness, dark, ripe cherries, some blackberries, plums, a slight hint of licorice in the background. Velvety and supple on the attack and on the palate, shows a lot of present, ripe cherry fruit, opens up with fine, silky tannins, describes a wide arc, sparkling, lively acidity on the finish.
