Appearance: Deep ruby-chocolate color with subtle hints of violet, suggesting concentration and maturity.
Aroma: Rich and seductive nose, dominated by the aromas of ripe blackcurrant, dark cherries, and black raspberries, supported by notes of cedar, chocolate, and a slight touch of tobacco.
Palate: Full body, where intense flavors of dark fruit and spices come to the fore—the dominant notes of blackcurrant, ripe berries, and sticky honey are elegantly supported by hints of vanilla, freshly cut oak, and soft tannins, creating a harmonious and richly structured profile.
Finish: Exceptionally long, complex finish, where notes of dark fruit continue, accompanied by subtle spiciness and a slight mineral character, promising great potential for further aging and the development of additional complexity.
