Tasting Notes
Dark ruby garnet, violet reflections, delicate watery rim. Aromas of cinnamon and vanilla, ripe cherries, a hint of goudron, dark nougat, pleasant notes of precious wood. Taut on the palate, present tannins, underlaid with red berry fruit, medium body, still a little brittle on the finish, cherries in the aftertaste, good ageing potential.
