Taste
A dance of flavors. Dominated by black fruit, with hints of blackberry, combined with a citrusy touch of orange peel and soft plum accents. Its vitality is undeniable, with a tension evoking the freshness of stone and the distinctive trace of pencil lead. At the same time, it is delicately full-bodied, with tannins that, despite their maturity, play on the palate with surprising freshness. The wine is undeniably luscious, inviting another sip, and leaves a lingering presence on the palate.
Smell
Fresh fruit, cherry, tart red fruit, aniseed and balsamic notes, a touch of citrus, fresh and vegetal.
