Tasting note
Radiant ruby red in color, it presents an expressive bouquet of ripe plums and cherries, enriched with spicy, earthy, and mineral undertones, complemented by delicate hints of balsamic and tobacco. On the palate, it is full-bodied and structured, featuring refined tannins, balanced acidity, and a lingering, savory finish.
