Tastings Notes |
|
Voluptuous and harmonious mouth-feel, generous, displaying the suppleness of ripe fruit (plums, cherries), along with spices, touches of chocolate and green herbs. A nice acidity lends plenty of freshness, balancing out the rounded tannins. Long and tasty finish, characterized by rich earthy notes. |
