Score: ✧✧✧✧✧ |
Intense ruby red and nuances of garnet red, little transparency.
Intense, clean, pleasing, refined and elegant, starts with hints of black currant, black cherry and plum followed by aromas of blueberry, violet, iris, vanilla, face powder, chocolate, blackberry, tobacco, licorice, mace, cigar box and eucalyptus.
Tannic attack and however balanced by alcohol, full body, intense flavors, pleasing roundness.
Very persistent finish with long flavors of black currant, black cherry and blueberry.
24 months in barrique.
