Tasting
Intense purple color with purple hues. Nose of black and ripe cherries supported by spicy and minty notes. On the palate the balance is perfect with a freshness stimulated by the crunchiness of the fruit and the pepper under the cover of well-integrated and integrated tannins. Drink now to enjoy its fruit, it will reach its peak in 3 years and can easily mature 10 years and more depending on the quality of the vintage.
