Tasting Notes
An enormously dark, bold red. The nose is restrained, with some spice notes and aromas of red cherry, ivy and hot bell peppers. A touch of toast and incense also appear. The palate brings a powerful attack - dense and medium-bodied, supported by brittle tannin and spiky acidity. The finish is a bit rugged. Classic, acidic Merlot that needs time to soften.
