Tasting profile
Intense ruby red with garnet reflections. The aroma is intense, persistent and fine, combining floral, fruity and spicy characters with varietal notes. The palate is dry, warm, soft and enveloping, with good freshness, savoury character and a full body. Its silky breadth is supported by an elegant, balanced structure and soft, unobtrusive tannins. The wine is intense and persistent, with a long finish recalling the spicy notes found on the nose.
