TASTING NOTES

A deep garnet color that sparkles in the glass with an eye-catching hue. On the nose, a timeless bouquet that includes blackcurrant, plums with an echo of cherries. The aromatics promise a structure with a range of flavors that mirror the nose. A complimentary selection of ripe red fruits with vanilla, indicative of a nicely matured Bordeaux red.
