Tasting Notes: Full-bodied, elegant wine that perfectly combines elegance with style. On the nose its intense, with notes of undergrowth that lead way to warm spices and tertiary aromas of cocoa and sweet tobacco. The palate is well-honed, soft tannins leave a long, dry and velvety finish in the mouth.
