Tasting Notes:
- Color Dark red and bright.
- In nose Is powerful, with intense aromas of ripe red fruit and sweet spices. They follow the toasted with a very elegant and delicate profile, without covering the fruit.
- In mouth Is really delicate, soft, but rich and bulky at the same time. Re-emphasize the fruit on a balsamico background very well integrated. Balanced, fresh, with elegant smooth tannins and good acidity. Long and very well structured.
