Tasting Notes:
The aromas are an intricate fusion of berry fruits—raspberries, blackberries, ripe black cherries, purple peaches, and plums—intertwined with savoury notes of roast game, grilled bacon, mushrooms, and the evocative scent of a wood-fired barbecue. On the palate, the wine offers depth and concentration without being overwhelming, remaining light and lively. The ripe tannins expand gradually, creating a velvety, mouth-filling texture. A spine of natural acidity adds structure, ensuring the wine remains tight-knit, muscular, and poised with a long, satisfying finish.
