Tastng notes
Medium intense cherry red hue with ruby rim, clean and bright. The nose is redolent of red fruit with balsamic and spicy overtones; with oxygenation it becomes faintly lactic giving way to white flowers and sweet spices (cinnamon) with hints of fresh leather and ink. In the mouth it is medium-bodied with sweet tannins and a great balance between the fruit, the spices and a hint of coffee.
