This wine presents vibrant aromatics of bright red fruit, highlighted by the luscious essence of pomegranate and subtle notes of spices. On the palate, it boasts well-integrated red fruit, vibrant acidity, complemented by hints of cedar, leather, and a touch of pepper. The finish is both long and supple, characterized by polished yet firm tannins that contribute to a well-balanced elegant wine. This wine properly stored will age gracefully for a decade or more.
