Description

So varied and complex that you need all the time you need to discover this oenological treasure. At first you will discover notes of wild herbs, cedar wood, sultanas, ginger and mint. Gradually notes of plum, tobacco and chocolate emerge. Refined style with silky tannins. Despite its aromatic texture, it is fresh and delicate.
