Tasting notes
In the glass, the wine shows a deep ruby red color. The bouquet opens with aromas of rose petals, violets, red berries, sandalwood, tangerine peel and a hint of anise. In the mouth, the wine presents itself as full and multidimensional, with a rich concentration, silky tannins and a long, salty finish. The wine impressively combines elegance and tension.
