Tasting notes
Colour: dense ruby. Nose: sour cherries, wild fruit, jam, raspberries, cocoa, mint and citrus. Palate: long, intense, soft; spices and jams balanced by sweet tannins. Full of feminine expression and nuance, with an ethereal bouquet of roses, mint, wild berries, milk chocolate, smoke and sweet tangerine peel; velvety tannins and an extensive, elegant finish.
