The wine is garnet red in color and dense. The aroma is intense, very fine and rich. We can detect the aroma of overripe red fruits and berries (sour cherry, blackberry, blueberry, prunes, dried fig, raisins, jam). In the mouth the wine is dry, warm and soft, fairly fresh, tannic and tasty, balanced, intense, elegant and very persistent, harmonious, strong and mature.
