A combination of delicacy and character. A charming bouquet of red flowers, cherry, red berries, dry earth, and cloves. Austere mouthfeel with high acidity, tight tannin (reminiscent of the walnut husk), a long and flavourful aftertaste and a mineral-fruity-flowery finish. Sophisticated and delicious.
