Tasting Notes:
Very intense dark garnet colour with a bright purple halo. In the nose it reveals great complexity that shows a harmonious combination of distinct notes of ripe red fruit, with a floral scent of violet and spice and a touch fresh and menthol. In the mouth it is intense, fresh, rich in ripe fruit, where cherry and raspberry predominate, as well as the notes of pepper, black and bitter chocolate. The tannins, well framed, form a harmonious and elegant ensemble. The ending is long, tasty and quite persistent.
