Tasting note

Nose

The initial impact is chocolate, blueberries, refined notes of marzipan and roasted coffee. Then pine resin and a hint of sea breeze, black cardamom, cinnamon, pepper and kola nut. A hint of violet shows the delicate side of this powerful wine.

Mouth

Elegant, easy-drinking wine, with tannins verging on sweet. The harmony of this wine is even more noteworthy because it is so intense. A deep, persistent wine, with blueberries, cocoa and cinnamon, plus a hint of toffee. In the finish, aromas of violet and black olive.
