Tasting notes

Deep and intense aroma, dominated by ripe black fruits like cassis and blackberries, notes of tertiary aromas resulting from ageing in the barrels contribute for its complexity. Soft in the mouth, showing well integrated acidity, volume and structure. Long and persistent finish of great elegance.
