Tasting Notes
Deep, dark ruby-garnet, opaque centre, violet highlights, a delicate lightening at the rim. Buttery notes, black cherry, elderberry, pine needles, violet pastille. The taut, lively palate is very dense, with grainy, slightly dry tannins; it achieves a high level of intensity and maintains its tension for a long time; the fruit is well-integrated, the minerality is pronounced and long-lasting. Very well-balanced. (U.S.)
