Description and tasting notes
Color: very intense garnet red. Scent: its aroma is quite intense with notes of red fruit, in particular plum, hints of tobacco and leather due to the use of French oak from Allier, licorice and dried flowers. Taste: very persistent. The tannins are present but not aggressive; it’s well balanced with the alcohol and the wine’s great body. Its structure is the predominant feature in the mouth.
