Tasting Notes

Tasting from 30.08.2012
Deep dark ruby colour, purple reflections, delicate watery rim. Fine floral nuances, with red berry confit in the background, delicate vegetal savouriness, still somewhat reserved. Full-bodied, very opulent on the palate, fine caramel touch, delicate orange flavour, sweet blackberry fruit on the finish, chocolaty and persistent, still far too young in any case.
