Description

The eye

Beautiful clear garnet colour with radiant and limpid appearance.

The nose

is complex, with red fruit aromas dominated by sour cherry.

The mouth

is intense,  straightforward and very aromatic, combining red fruits and delicate tannins. A very pleasant and balanced wine with a good potential.
