Dense and light ruby red color with light garnet red reflections. The bouquet is characterized by intense notes of blackberries, blueberries and ripe plums, to which is added a pinch of chocolate and coffee that enhances the tasting experience. This wine also reveals an elegant touch of licorice. The minerality is well structured and pleasantly warm. The tannins are ripe but fresh and guarantee optimal persistence with a wonderful lively finish.
