Score: ✧✧✧ |
The 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 black cherry and pomegranate followed by aromas
of blueberry, blackberry, plum, cyclamen and vanilla. 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 blueberry and black cherry. This wine
ages for 10 months in casks.
