TASTING NOTES

Colour: Beautiful deep purple red colour;
Aroma: Deliciously sultry on the nose, lots of fruit, lightly spicy, laurel, vanilla, smoky, some floral tones, broad and subtle;
Taste: Generous, well-defined, distinct flavours. A gentle start with an excellent balance between concentration, freshness and tannins; taste of licorice, caramel and minerals. Pleasant finish with ripe tannins.

For current vintage, alcohol percentage and more details go to the tab Specification.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

A warming, full-bodied red wine, temptingly soft, bursting with ripe fruit. The idea of the oenologists is to make a very good, high-quality wine, that lets you taste the terroir for an affordable price ...

WE RECOMMEND

We recommend that you open the wine an hour before consumption and serve it in a glass with a big enough balloon to let the wine develop its entire beauty of aromas and flavours.
