This wine has a deep ruby red color. Impressive on the nose with its aromatic complexity and finesse: notes of small red fruits, notably raspberries and blackberries, lead to sweet sensations of ripe apricots and red oranges accompanied by light floral notes of roses. Distinct aromas of coffee beans, chocolate and licorice are perfectly integrated and are accompanied by fresh impressions of mint and white pepper that give its generous bouquet a pleasant delicate spicy note.

The palate is enveloping, harmonious with an excellent and well-balanced structure. Rich and bright tannins contribute to its dense and captivating character. The finish is exceptionally long and pleasant with a lingering aftertaste that echoes the toasty and spicy notes perceived on the nose.
