The aroma is the classic one: moist earth, cherry, plum and graphite. On release the nose is full of elegant notes balsamic eucalyptus and black pepper. On the palate the sensation is of a material, pulpy, rich wine. The notes fresh represented by the elegant tannins and the indispensable acidity create the structure of this sumptuous wine to balance and harmonize. Despite its youth (it has been a wine for ten or more years of aging), the balance shown is remarkable. The very long final and aftertaste sensations are of satisfaction and fulfillment.
