With its magnificent ruby color, this wine presents a seductive nose of lightly spiced black fruit aromas. Black cherry, blueberry and blackcurrant blend harmoniously with white pepper. The palate is elegant and well-balanced, with roundness. The tannins are discreet, revealing a fine body that is both fresh and tender. Black fruit aromas carry us through to the gourmet, persistent finish.
