EXPERT TASTING NOTES

Ruby red with pomegranate reflections. Good depth and awesome intensity. The bouquet is subtle, longer rather than intense with a delicate mineral opening. Slight hints of hydrocarbon and under woods. Spicy and fruity notes. The taste is balanced and elegant, with a pleasant acid accent, followed by a strong and rough tannin. Intense and persistent. Well defined aromatic persistence.
