Shows a beautiful red garnet color, with bright and clear reflections. On the nose, we find very opened and expressive aromas, showing ref fruit notes, cherry and raspberry with poeny notes. In the mouth, this wine shows delicious texture, supple and delicate tannins, with strawberry, raspberry and redcurrant notes paired with eucalytpus aromas, giving a very fresh and intense wine. We find also white pepper and spicy notes, ending on delicate oaky notes giving roundness and a beautiful long finish. It`s a brillant wine, ready to drink now but with a few years ageing potential."
