Tasting Notes
Intense, sparkling ruby with a fine garnet rim. Shows plenty of ripe fruit on the nose, of plums and preserved cherries, with slightly malty notes in the background. Multi-layered on the palate, notes of ripe plums, opens with fine, rich tannins, builds well, salty notes that add depth, firm pressure on the finish.
