Tasting notes
Gorgeous and intense vermillion red in color, this wine opens with a fresh, airy bouquet layered with spice, willow, thyme, eucalyptus, heather, cedar, and a whisper of freshly cut herbs. Subtle notes of egg-based pastries add a delicate gourmand touch, enhancing the wine’s overall finesse and elegance.
On the palate, it is fresh, soft, and full, delivering a velvety texture and remarkable length. Flavors of roasted notes, dark chocolate, fruit jellies, raspberry, and mellow red berry liqueurs unfold gracefully, joined by a hint of cherries in alcohol. The tannins are fine and well-integrated, giving the wine structure without weight.
The long, elegant finish carries lingering impressions of chocolate and a subtle saline-liquorice nuance, making for a complex and captivating tasting experience.
