Apparently the winemaker didn't make any of his higher end wines in 2010 and instead all the best fruit went into this one. Benefiting from some age it makes for perfect drinking now. Medium bodied, intense perfume and an evolving finish.

Red fruit, tobacco. Balanced tannins. Extended finish, opens up even in the glass.

Очень изящно, фиалка, вишня, вишневая косточка, кардамон, несладкие пряности, белый перец. Очень изящно в теле, многоперца во вкусе, очень гастрономично. 17/20 (93/100)
