Dark ruby with purple reflections and broader rim lightening. Dark wild berry fruit underlay with a touch of chocolate, a hint of ripe cherry, dark slate notes, mineral touch and tobacco nuances. Powerful, complex, fine extract sweetness, ripe tannins, fresh and finesse, very long lasting. Sweet finish, taut and tightly meshed in the aftertaste, remains very well hanging, has certain ageing potential for many years.
