Score: ✧✧✧✧✧ |
The wine shows a deep ruby red color and nuances of ruby red, little
transparency. The nose reveals personality with intense, clean, pleasing,
elegant and refined aromas that start with hints of black cherry, black
currant and violet followed by good and intense aromas of blueberry, plum,
licorice, tobacco, menthol, caramel, cocoa and vanilla followed by
pleasing hints of cinnamon and clove. In the mouth has very good
correspondence to the nose, a slightly tannic attack and however well
balanced by alcohol, full body, intense flavors, elegant tannins. The
finish is very persistent with clean and intense flavors of black cherry,
plum and blueberry. A very well made wine. Camartina ages for 18-20 months
in barrique followed by 6 months of aging in bottle.
