Notes | |||
"Intense bright red tending to garnet with aging. Intense, clean, characterized by spicy notes reminiscent of berries jam and pleasant shades of vanilla. A buttery scent inebriates the nose. Majestic on the palate, with a round and velvety body. The tannic plot is dense and enveloping, excellent persistence." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"Dried berries and cherries with walnuts and dried flowers follow through to a full body with layers of tannins and very ripe fruit. Hints of prunes. Soft texture. Drink or hold." —James Suckling |
