Features
Very intense almost sight-tight garnet-red hue; the generous depth of the colour provides for a remarkable structure. Intense and layered bouquet with varietal flavours of ripe fruit accompanied by vanilla notes to create a perfect harmony. A structured wine that releases lively and balanced sensations. Very well balanced body and tannins with tasty and persistent finish.
