Tasting Notes

Deep ruby colour.
The nose unfolds in layers of forest berries, wild strawberry and ripe cherry, intertwined with subtle notes of caramel, wet earth and dried spices.
The palate is silky and fresh, with fine, well-integrated tannins.
It finishes elegant, persistent and beautifully balanced, combining concentration with finesse.
