More about the tastingRich, sparkling ruby. Opens on the nose with light vegetal notes of cardamom and fresh herbs, followed by beautiful cherry and plum. Lots of fresh, present fruit on the palate, opens with dense tannins, somewhat bulky from the mid-palate onwards, good pressure on the finish, but the wine still seems very raw, still needs ageing.
