Dark red, with a slight tendency towards rust red. Intense, powerful and complex with spicy and sparkling red cherry aromas, together with wild berries, cranberries, red currants, raspberries, and a mineral citrus-vanilla charming and "soft" background. The wine appears very fresh and shows considerable volume on the nose, without seeming alcoholic. Full-bodied, velvety, polished and plump tannins with wonderful, red berry, powerful fruit length that goes in width but also in depth. Wonderful melt, soft and balanced with a mineral finish, which makes the wine feel lively and long on the palate.
