Written Notes

Deep purple with opulent fruits, plums and cherries, layered with rich clove, mocha and vanilla bean aromas. Medium to full bodied with perfectly ripe, plush tannins enrobed with juicy fruits and spicy flavours that extend across the palate, and persist in a pure, berry fruit finish. Very suave.

Dark purple colour with violet hue and almost black core. Very expressive nose, blackberries, blueberries, blackcurrants, mild spices. On the palate well strcutured with serious body and convincing length, lingering fruit in the finish. A juicy and fleshy wine for an early drinking, however with a very promising ageing potential. Freshness and precision.
