Very dark red in color, almost black, we perceive from the first nose a basket of fresh fruits (raspberry, cherry, strawberry). Allowed to breathe, we find greater complexity: spices, dried herbs, fennel, light floral note (violet). The palate is frank and balanced, with good concentration and very nice volume. Despite a large quantity of tannins, the structure remains supple and creamy: a nice balance between substance, density, and freshness. The texture is delicate and precise. The finish is very long and complex around more earthy notes of smoke and flint.
