Tasting Notes
A deep crimson red, with purple hues, a subtle brightening on the rim. Ripe Amarena cherries, some roasted plums, a hint of nougat, liquorice and tobacco. Intense notes of ripe, dark cherries, a chocolatey texture, ripe tannins, a maraschino note on the finish, persistent, savoury and fresh, at its first peak of maturity.
