Tasting Notes
Brilliant, rich ruby-garnet in colour. A very clear nose is fragrant and inviting, full of ripe wild raspberries and plums. Shows a lot of rich and juicy fruit at the beginning of the palate, then unfolds in a densely packed manner with fine-grained tannins, mineral depth, a long finish and rich drive.
