Tasting Notes

Clear, deep violet red color with purple tinges. It presents itself with ripe red and forest fruit, plum and cassis in harmony with notes of cherry compote perfectly matched with the spicy notes from the grape varieties used. The aging in wood gives it sweet notes of vanilla and roasting. It is full-bodied and structured presenting a fine complex aroma in the mouth with notes of red fruit and chocolate, the aftertaste is long and harmonious with quality tannins still present.
