Written Notes

Good looking normal size bottle, is in a perfect condition and has by the neck level. Colour is ruby red, and looking healthy and medium. On the nose it is wide, youthful, refined and seductive. The taste is vigor, fragrant, refined, full-bodied, with balanced, well-structured and concentrated structure. The finish is long, extensive, pure and spicy. This wine is exotic and outstanding. Perfectly stored bottles are still very worthy and will last well for another 10-15 years and decant at least over 4h before tasting.
