Extremely quaffable! Balanced and well made. Plump dark fruit, fine structure, not too complex but correct.

Dark fruit, with red hints, some herbal notes. High acidity, quite fresh, showing a certain bitterness (in a positive way) in the aftertaste

Fruity with blueberry and blackberries as well as some spices, black pepper and tobacco and leather hints. Tertiary aromas with oaky vanilla and smoky hints. Medium to full body with soft tannins, velvety, bone dry and balance acidity. My respects!
