Tasting Notes
Strong crimson garnet, discreet ochre reflections, broad and bright rim. Delicate bouquet, ripe wild red berry confit, soft herbal spice, a hint of orange zest. Juicy and very elegant on the palate, fine tannins, very well integrated acidity, pronounced cherry fruit on the finish, drinking very well now, perfectly developed, has further ageing potential.
