The nose is clean and of pronounced intensity. Rich and enveloping aromas of ripe cherries and juicy red plums with a note of wild strawberry. Ethereal aromas of fresh rose petals contrast with deep notes reminiscent of tobacco and tar.
This wine is dry with pronounced tannins that are beginning to soften. Its high alcohol and generous body are balanced by medium plus acidity. A fruit-forward palate harmonizes beautifully with an array of complex aromas ranging from cinnamon and nutmeg to cracked black pepper and a resinous note. Beguiling and rich with a long finish and excellent potential for lengthy cellaring.
