Red Wine	Score: ✧✧

The wine shows a brilliant ruby red color and nuances of garnet red, moderate transparency. The nose reveals intense, clean and pleasing aromas which start with hints of black cherry and plum followed by aromas of raspberry, blueberry, cyclamen and hints of vanilla. In the mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a slightly tannic attack and pleasing crispness, however balanced, good body, intense flavors. The finish is pretty persistent with flavors of black cherry and plum.
