Deep red-violet colour. Complex aromas with notes of blue fruits and
spices like black pepper & cloves. In the mouth intense, huge, with a high density and concentrated. An impressive balance between alcohol, structure and acidity, giving it a long potential for bottle ageing. The final is aromatic and very long
