## Tasting notes

Garnet red of good intensity. Clear aromas of plum and small fruits, light touches of liquorice and spice. Good body and harmonious, with a slight tannic edge that points to a long life. The site adds for La Serra: complex aromas of red-fruit jam and cherries in spirit, with spicy notes.
