Winemaker’s impressions
Wine of cherry red color, clean and bright appearance. The nose has a medium intensity with clean and powerful aromas. Strong varietal character in which
black fruit and floral aromas are mixed with toasted and spiced notes from the oak aging. On the palate the wine has a soft attack, wide. Persistent finish with a good freshness.
