The bouquet immediately appears very complex and of great finesse then explodes into hints of roasted coffee and hints of ripe cherry and plum, combined with the spicy notes of vanilla from the wood. Harmoniously balanced and velvety on the palate, delicately tannic, it is full-bodied and full, with typical characteristics of dried grapes.
