Tasting Notes
Strong ruby garnet colour, purple reflections, broad rim brightening. Delicately smoky-tobacco flavoured red berry confit, ripe cherries, fine floral nuances, pleasant herbal savouriness, needs some air in the glass. Juicy, good complexity, elegant, finesse-rich texture, fine extracted sweetness, vivid, silky tannins that give the wine length, mineral, ripe plums and some honey on the finish, good savouriness on the back, very good development and certain ageing potential.
