Cherry red color with violet hues. Fresh nose, with aromas of redcurrants, intense forest fruits and blackberries. Slight hints of violets and truffles. The wood is very well integrated into the wine, providing a background of roasted coffee notes that denote its gentle ageing in oak barrels. Round, powerful and lively on the palate.
