Tasting Notes
Dark ruby colour, purple reflections, delicate edge brightening. Fine blend of dark forest berries, cassis, a hint of cedar wood, lots of nougat. Juicy, opulent, reminiscent of top Napa Valley Cabernets, very freshly structured, characterised by the above-average Cabernet Sauvignon content, aromatic, almost baroque style, then mineral on the finish, a storable, long-lasting wine that will give pleasure for a long time to come.
