AROMA: Elegant aromas of small black fruits (blackberry, red mulberry, amarena and ferrovia cherry) and delicate floral notes (violet), with a background of aromatic herbs, licorice and graphite
TASTE: It bursts on the palate with a long, luxurious texture and superb retronasal echoes. Supported by tannins of excellent quality. A very rich and endless finish
