A captivating oenological triumph. Waves of red and black fruit mingle with warm brioche and vanilla, and a subtle touch of black pepper. The aromatics evolve with each sip, revealing saddle leather, a note of crushed limestone, and hints of dried herbs. The palate is both rich and inviting, combining delightful earth, fruit, and spice elements with each new sip. Expansive and soft, the texture of the wine is enhanced by a velvet tannin structure that carries with it flavors of dark cherry and blackberry. The beautifully refined finish is smooth and lingering, leaving a lasting impression of elegance and depth.
TASTING NOTES:
The aromas of blackberries, black cherries, spices, orange peel and chocolate follow through to full-bodied palate with round and juicy tannins and a long finish with hints of hazelnuts at the end. It’s savory and juicy, with lots going on. Fresh finish. Soft tannins. Elegant and fine. Seductive. Drink or hold.
