Tasting notes:
Intense ruby red. On the nose, it offers a refined bouquet, in which there are notes of blueberries, blackberries and wild strawberries, with delicate notes of vanilla and cocoa, spices and dark chocolate. The mouth is rich, of great density, guided by smooth and silky tannins. The fruits perceived by the nose also return to the palate, and give a fresh, elegant finish with an interminable persistence.
