Tasting Notes

The bouquet is an alluring blend of red and black cherry, pomegranate, strawberry, and a touch of cranberry, harmoniously mingling with earthy undertones of underbrush, dried mushroom, delicate rose petals, and a hint of exotic spice. The palate is medium-bodied and beautifully polished, showcasing a deeply mineral core that lends a muscular backbone to this otherwise lifted and perfumed wine. The fine-grained tannins are light and silky, while the acidity is crisp and refreshing. The finish is long and lingering, leaving an enticing aftertaste of red fruits, floral nuances, and subtle earthiness.
