The wine shows a brilliant ruby red color and nuances of garnet red, little transparency. The nose reveals intense clean, pleasing and refined aromas which start with hints of black cherry and plum followed by aromas of blueberry, violet, vanilla, tobacco, licorice, cocoa, eucalyptus, clove and mace. The mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a slightly tannic attack and good roundness, however balanced by alcohol, good body, intense flavors, good tannins. The finish is persistent with flavors of black cherry, blueberry and plum. This wine ages for 16 months in barrique.
