TASTING NOTES

Brilliant, attractive, intense red-cherry colour, with a lively ruby rim. The nose is an explosion of mature fruits, cassis and black cherries, and integrated spice, over backcloth of leather and tobacco.

On the palate, this mature wine reveals its fascinating personality with mature dark fruits complemented by meaty notes, creating and exceptionally round and well-balanced sensation in the mouth, gliding towards and agreeably long and harmonious finish
