WINE TASTING COMMENTS

2017

A beautiful deep dark purple wine. The first nose discovers notes of smoke, tobacco and black truffle. Stirred, it opens up on aromas of stewed red fruits, demonstrating signs of a great maturity, with hints of dried figs and black cherry.
The mouth is generous and full, with very soft tannins and a nice final length on ripe fruits.
