Details

These primary aromas are lovingly enveloped by hints of leather and smokiness which derive from the wine’s maturation in barrel. On the palate one realises the integration of all flavours and aromas, with white pepper and red berry fruits remaining the driving force. Soft, integrated tannins and a structured mid palate hold true and follow through to an extended mouthcoating after taste.
