Score: ✧✧✧ |
This wine shows a brilliant ruby red color and nuances of purple red,
moderate transparency. The nose denotes intense, clean and pleasing aromas
which start with hints of cherry and blueberry followed by aromas of
cyclamen, raspberry and plum. The mouth has good correspondence to the
nose, a slightly tannic attack and pleasing crispness, however balanced by
alcohol, good body, intense flavors. The finish is persistent with flavors
of cherry and blueberry. This wine ages in steel tanks. |
