Reviews
The brilliant deep garnet red color with purple nuances opens on an intense and attractive nose which combines the smells of red and black fruit jams (raspberry, blackberry, blueberry) with roasted notes (toasted bread, caramel, vanilla). The mouth with a supple attack offers a fleshy substance, smoothness, volume, a nice balance, as well as grilled and spicy aromas which coat melted tannins, then persist in a structured and long finish.
