Tasting Notes

Purple colour with violet hues. Expressive nose of flowers, especially violets, packed with layers of red fruits like fresh plums and figs, and spices like black pepper and anise. Subtle oak aromas over a backdrop of graphite, tobacco, and cedar. Its delightful palate balances acidity, fine-grain tannins, excellent volume, perfect body, and long finish which hints at the great potential this wine has.
