The wine shows a brilliant ruby red color and nuances of purplish red, moderate transparency. The nose denotes intense and clean aromas of fruit such as black cherry, blackberry, plum and black currant followed by hints of vanilla. The mouth reveals good correspondence to the nose, excellent balance and full body. The finish is persistent with clean and evident hints of blackberry and black cherry. This wine is aged in American oak barrels.
