The Sommelier's Tasting Profile

A wine built for the cellar, yet approachable in its youth with proper aeration. It promises an extraordinary evolution.

• Appearance: Deep, inky garnet with a brilliant clarity.
• Aroma: Intense and opulent, featuring concentrated notes of blackcurrant, mulberry, and black raspberry, beautifully framed by hints of cedar, graphite, and new French oak.
• Taste: Full-bodied and voluminous, yet retaining a beautiful freshness. The tannins are ripe and plush, providing a seamless texture. Expect layers of dark fruit, cocoa, and a long, mineral-driven finish that speaks of its limestone origins.
