TASTING NOTES
Beautiful garnet color. Lovely freshness that perfectly balances the wine and lengthens the palate. The nose of ripe fruit with a floral note reminiscent of peony is confirmed on the palate with aromas of cherry and blueberry. An elegant wine to which ageing will bring silkiness and complexity.
