Tasting notes:
This fine wine showcases a deep, enchanting ruby color. A gentle sniff reveals a complex aroma, with rich blackcurrant and black cherry scents leading, soon interwoven with subtle smokiness, mellow chocolate, and a hint of spice. On the palate, it offers a round and full - bodied feel, where sweetness and acidity are perfectly balanced. The abundant, silky tannins spread slowly, leaving a long, luxurious finish that captivates the senses.
