Tasting
Pretty dress with nice purple reflections. A fine nose with aromas of red fruits which bring greediness and notes of spices are revealed in a second time. A very fresh mouth, almost mentholated, with aromas of red fruits which come to complexify the aromatic bouquet. Nice balance with fine and silky tannins.
