Tasting
|
Bright and limpid, the hue is ruby with violet reflections. On tghe nose there are predominantly red berries like current and blackcurrent, but also some notes of preserves.On the tongue it is delicacy, but its structure is solid with well-embedded tannins. The last impression in the aftermouth confirms the nose, and it disappears in a sensation of perfect harmony. A wine with personality, imposing by its tenderness.
