Tasting Notes
Deep dark ruby with purple reflections and a subtle wateriness on the rim. The nose has delicate nougat notes, a touch of tobacco, meadow herbs, dark wild berry confit and orange zest notes. The palate is juicy and complex, with an elegant tannic structure, delicate roasted aromas and some blackberry on the long-lasting finish. Definite ageing potential.
