Appearance: Deep ruby color, almost opaque, with a blood-intense hue and highly saturated, clear texture.
Aroma: Rich and complex aroma: dense notes of ripe blackberries, cherries, and blueberries, complemented by the elegance of violets, subtle chocolate, spicy black pepper, and earthy and coffee undertones. The nose is ripe, robust, and harmonious.
Taste: Dry, full-bodied with a dense fruit core (dark berries), silky, ripe tannins, and the elegance of Merlot. The taste is rich, layered, with spicy undertones (black pepper, flour) and a subtle trace of chocolate. Fine chalky tannin and fresh acidity (?5.8–6 g/L).
Finish: Long and harmonious finish, where fruitiness blends with spices and a mineral ending. Tannins are soft, ripe — the wine is drinkable now, optimal drinking period 2022–2030+, with a long lifespan.
