Score: ✧✧✧✧ |
The wine shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of ruby red, moderate
transparency. The nose reveals intense, clean, pleasing and refined aromas
which start with hints of black cherry and plum followed by aromas of
blueberry, black currant, violet, cocoa, licorice, menthol, black pepper
and hints of vanilla and bell pepper. The mouth has good correspondence to
the nose, a tannic attack and however balanced by alcohol, good body,
intense flavors. The finish is persistent with flavors of black cherry and
plum. This wine ages for 18 months in cask followed by an aging of 10
months in bottle.
