Appearance: Intense ruby-red color with pomegranate-like tones, clear and saturated, glossy texture.
Aroma: Elegant and complex aroma: ripe red fruit (multi-varied ruby cherry, raspberries), subtle floral notes, together with spices, vanilla, and a mineral green hint. The aroma is also characterized by balsamic notes.
Taste: Dry, full-bodied with well-structured tannins and acidity tones. The flavor includes ripe cherry, baked apricot, spices (cinnamon, white pepper), an elegant mineral and slightly earthy profile. The texture is balanced and harmonious.
Finish: Long-lasting finish with fruit and spice notes; tannins are present but not aggressive. The wine is still fresh and has excellent aging potential. Optimal drinking period: 2023–2035.
