Written Notes

Dark purple colour with violet hue and black core. Opulent nose with distinct fruit, blackberries, blackcurrants and ripe elderberries, gingerbread spices, balmy hints, dark chocolate, elegant toasting and hints of cold smoke. On the palate well structured with firm yet ripe tannins, juicy fruit, hints of chocolate and mild spices, very good texture, balanced finish. A wine with promising potential.

Good looking normal size bottle. Colour is ruby red, and looking clear and deep. On the nose it is wide, rich and ripe. The taste is ripe, round, fruity, toasty, and dry, warming, with sweet tannins, and average in acidity and with balanced structure. On the palate it is layered and has chocolate, toasty, blueberry, blackberry and cherry flavours. The finish is long and flavorful. This wine is well-rounded and fine. I paid around 10-30€ a bottle. Perfectly stored bottles are still very worthy and will last well for another 5-10€ years. Good value for money. I do recommend.
