Appearance: Deep ruby color – almost opaque, with strong color concentration and a shiny texture.
Aroma: The opening brings complex floral and fruity aromas – violets, ripe cherry, blueberry – supported by chocolate, a note of mandarin, and black pepper spices. The nose is diverse and intense.
Taste: Dry, full-bodied, rich fruit profile (notes of cherry, blueberry, strawberry), with a layered texture and silky tannins. The taste is marked by extracts, hints of chocolate, fine spicy touches, and slight minerality. High persistence.
Finish: Very long-lasting and harmonious finish, where silky tannins blend with fruity and spicy nuances. Recommended drinking: 2009–2023, including the optimal period 2015–2025+.
