Tasting notes
A highly aromatic nose with a pleasing touch of acidity, expressing above all our wonderful merlot. In the mouth the wine is balanced, with an excellent freshness and powerful tannins. The aromatic palette is built around notes of cedar, hazelnut and nutmeg. The dense and powerful finish
highlights the essential character of this wine, which is both fresh and tannic.
