Dark ruby color. Aromas of black cherry, rose petals and plums. Same fruits on the savory palate that also includes tobacco, dark chocolate and baking spices. Hint of toast on the long and luxurious finish. Firm but well integrated tannins. Nicely balanced and pleasantly lean. Elegant.

Excellent value. Yummy, full-bodied wine with a lovely dry finish. It has a beautiful deep claret color, a nice bouquet, and after it opens, it’s wonderful with food.
