Of a deep violet colour with black hues, the nose is focused with intense ripe
blueberry and plum intermingled with subtle leather and complex vainilla, tabaco
and liqueur notes. Starts fruity and sweet followed by complex oak flavors. The finish
is long and lingering with soft round tannins than provide wonderful harmony. This wine
is a perfect match with pasta, beef and sweet courses like dried fruit or chocolate.
