Description
Red cherry colour and garnet iridescence. Rich in aromas from ageing in oak barrels, such as vanilla, smoky notes, cocoa and spices, which after slight swirling come together with intense notes of fruit compote, bringing a certain pleasant sweetness. In the mouth, it has round, balanced and elegant tannins. The wood notes are subtler than in the aroma. With medium length, leaving an interesting trace of ripe fruit.
