The nose is intense and happily declined between luxuriant aromas of berries, cherries and red plums. Notes of withered flowers, extend into those of undergrowth and wild berries. Tobacco, leather, pepper and sweet spices make the complex even more fascinating. Clean and precise, it leaves no doubt about the quality.
On the palate it is voluminous and equally well structured, Set in the tannic texture it widens lightly, enveloping the palate with elegance and voluptuousness. Balanced and in harmony while remaining in the mouth, persistent and inviting when swallowed between splendid aromas of black cherries, Mediterranean scrub and spices.
