Written Notes

Good looking normal size bottle, is in a excellent condition and has by the neck level. Colour is ruby red, and looking bright and deep. On the nose it is intense, refined, opulent and seductive. The taste is round, fruity, elegant, fat, firm, refined, with silky tannins, full-bodied, with balanced, complex structure and developing. On the palate it is layered and has blackcurrant, dried-fruit, herbs, mineral, meaty, cedar, spice, smoky, new-oak, tobacco, truffles and cigar-box flavours. The finish is long, extensive, flavorful, pure and vibrant. This wine is exotic, intelligent 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.
