Score: ✧✧✧✭ |
Cabernet shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of garnet red, little
transparency. The nose denotes intense, clean, pleasing and refined aromas
which start with hints of plum, black currant and bell pepper followed by
aromas of blueberry, dried violet, black cherry and raspberry. The mouth
has good correspondence to the nose, a properly tannic attack and however
balanced by alcohol, good body, intense flavors, pleasing roundness. The
finish is persistent with flavors of plum, black currant and blueberry.
Cabernet ages for 12 months in cement tanks followed by 3 months of aging
in bottle. |
