Description

Intense ruby ​​red color, clean and bright, with a dense formation of tears. This wine displays aromas of fresh black fruit and ripe cherries, accompanied by subtle notes of white pepper, eucalyptus forest and mint. The tertiary nuances of the wood are revealed with hints of dark chocolate, coffee and cigar box. In the mouth, it is long and unctuous, with fresh acidity and ripe tannins. A balanced and young wine.
