TASTING NOTES
Bright ruby red with violet tinges.
Elegant bouquet with floral notes of rose and violet, undertones of black berry fruits and hints of spices.
Soft, round, with a great density but not cloying, thanks to the perfect balance of well-integrated tannins and to the supporting acidity. Excellent final length.
