Tasting Notes:
Intense nose, subtly vanilla-scented and marked by spices (pepper, thyme,…) followed by ripe, jammy red fruits.
A beautiful palate, with great volume and richness, revealing spicy notes and sour cherry.
The tannins are present but well-integrated. This wine, very long on the finish, offers lovely suppleness.
