The wine has an intense garnet red colour, with a dense core and traces of slight lightening on the edges. A pronounced intensity of aromas of ripe, dark fruit (ripe cherry, plum, blackberry), chocolate, accompanied by light tobacco, clove and slightly earthy notes. The wine is dry, the tannins are soft and velvety, the body is powerful. The palate is intense and complex (blackcurrant, blackberry, dark cherry, coffee), while the finish is long and persistent. A very pleasant drink.
