Appearance: Dark ruby-garnet color, slight violet hues, clear – indicates a mature wine, medium to full body.
Aroma: Rich aromas of dried forest fruits – cherry, black currant – intertwined with notes of cocoa, oak, smoke, menthol, with slight animal and earthy undertones.
Taste: Medium to full body, the ripeness of the fruit is connected with fine yet demanding tannins. Marked by an elegant, slightly animal terroir tone and pleasant freshness and minerality. Well-structured with a long, citrus-infused finish.
Finish: Long-lasting aftertaste with pronounced minerality, tannins, and citrus. Elegant and maturely selected vintage, suitable for drinking now and for several more years of aging.
