Bouquet

On the nose intense olfactory profile and highly complex. It ranges from ripe fruit to cherry jam, black cherry and plum, then as a cigar box aromas, pipe tobacco, pepper, licorice, light hints of herbs and ethereal.

Flavour

On the palate it expresses with elegance and vigor. The attack is soft and accompanied by the finesse of noble tannins that first draws the fruits felt to the nose and then manifests in its spicy sensations in the long finish.
