"Aniseed, mint and ripe red-berry aromas blend with a light balsamic note that adds complexity to the bouquet. On the palate, this medium-bodied wine offers ripe black and red fruit alongside hints of black olive backed by nice acidity. It finishes long with fruit flavors." Jesica Vargas - 90/100, Wine Enthusiast
Tasting Note: An expressive ruby red colour wine. Its aromas recall ripe, black fruit gracefully combined with vanilla, tobacco and cloves. The
result is a medium bodied wine, balanced and pleasant persistent wine.
