Ruby red colour with garnet highlights. Very rich and aromatic on the nose, with intense and powerful notes of wild berries, black cherry jam, rosemary, burnt wood, tobacco; then balsamic mint, spicy cinnamon and pepper to wrap up. Lush, full-bodied and elegant in taste, with good structure and power. Velvety tannins, well-integrated in a design that is fresh and with an aristocratic sapidity. Persistent, consistent aftertaste, with spicy and balsamic finish.
