Good appearance. Deep black colour with no sign of development. Rich on the nose with notes of black fruits, chocolate and cinnamon. Tight, tannic and concentrated on the palate with fresh and “sweet” tannins. Creamy finish with plenty of flesh.
A very good wine for laying down, to enjoy in 2/3 years, and with strong ageing potential.
