TASTING NOTES
Displaying a deep ruby colour with subtle garnet undertones, this wine offers a rich tapestry of aromas. Notes of black currant, sour cherry, and lemon jelly mingle with hints of licorice, nutmeg, balsamic, eucalyptus, toasted coffee, and dark chocolate, creating a complex olfactory experience. The well-integrated tannins are balanced by lively acidity, accentuating flavors of dark fruits, mint, and baking spice on the palate. The finish is long, persistent, and indulgent, with lingering notes of blackberry, currant, and licorice.
