Tasting
Color
Beautiful purple color with violet highlights.
Nose
On the nose, notes of blackcurrant, redcurrants and small dark berries burst forth from the glass and immediately charm.
Palate
On the palate, the attack is fruity then evolves into a balanced and elegant mid-palate. The tannins are precise and well integrated, conferring a juicy structure.
