Score: ✧✧✧ |
This wine shows a brilliant ruby red color and nuances of ruby red,
moderate transparency. The nose denotes intense, clean and pleasing aromas
which start with hints of black cherry and blueberry followed by aromas of
cyclamen, plum, black currant, vanilla and hints of bell pepper. The mouth
has good correspondence to the nose, a slightly tannic attack and however
balanced by alcohol, good body, intense flavors. The finish is persistent
with flavors of black cherry and blueberry. This wine ages for 12 months in
cask.
