which start with hints of plum and black cherry followed by aromas of
blueberry, violet, tobacco, licorice, cocoa, vanilla, blackberry and
eucalyptus. In the mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a slightly
tannic attack and pleasing smoothness, however balanced by alcohol, good
body, intense flavors, good tannins. The finish is persistent with flavors
or black cherry, plum and blueberry. Santa Cecilia ages for 12 months in
barrique.
