TASTING NOTES: intense ruby red in colour. The nose is delightful, with intense aromas of black truffle and graphite, mint, aniseed, cherry, prune and chocolate. The palate has a robust structure and an acidity that recalls hints of pine drops, orange peel, morello cherry, lavender and dark chocolate. Well-balanced with a sensation of subdued alcohol due to satisfying acidity and rather decisive tannins. Persistent finale recalling the aromas on the nose.
