Score: ✧✧✧✧ |
 Intense ruby red and nuances of brick red, little transparency.
 Intense, clean, pleasing and refined, starts with hints of prune, black currant and dried violet followed by aromas of black cherry jam, blueberry jam, vanilla, leather, tobacco, licorice, cocoa and eucalyptus.
 Properly tannic attack and however balanced by alcohol, good body, intense flavors, pleasing roundness.
 Persistent finish with flavors of prune, blueberry jam and black cherry jam.
 More than 24 months in barrique and bottle.
