Written Notes

Good looking normal size bottle and in an perfect condition. Colour is cherry red, and looking clear and medium. On the nose it is wide, open and complex. The taste is fruity,voluptuous, toasty, and dry, warming, with medium tannin, with silky tannins, and average in acidity, medium-bodied, with balanced, complex structure and developing. On the palate it is layered and has chocolate, balsamic, pepper, coffee, licorice, cherry, toasty and raspberry flavours. The finish is long and spicy. This wine is excellent. I paid around 30-50€ a bottle. Perfectly stored bottles are still very worthy and will last well for another 10-15 years and decant at least 30min before tasting. Good value for money. I do recommend.
