Tasting notes
Bright cherry red with purple hues. It has a very fruity nose (red fruit in season), with a lot of freshness, hints of spices, hints of gunpowder, and light toasted notes, rounding off its expression. The entry is juicy on the palate and its passage is firm and fresh, leaving us with a fruity and pleasant sensation of a balanced body with notes of blackberry, cherry, red plums, and a touch of licorice. Reminiscences of dried fruits, woodwork, and very light roasted coffee.
