    Tasting notes

    Appearance

    Attractive dark garnet color.

    Aroma

    Fruity on opening, evoking prune, blackcurrant, violet and pepper, with plenty of originality and a hint of chocolate.

    Wine Fruity | Spicy

    Taste

    Jovial flesh lines the palate with crunchy, juicy notes, like little berries exploding in your mouth. The fruity finish is supported by silky, coated tannins.

    The nose is fruity and spicy. The bewitching color of this wine announces the delicious aromas of leather and venison that accompany the freshness of its silky mouth.

    Classic Bordeaux satellite. Beautiful dark red color. Round and a little tannic. 2016 ready to drink.

    Gentle and very nice. It's mature and shouldn't earn much more. I'll probably use it again.

    to be tasted immediately wine already matured should keep for another 3 or 4 years
