Tasting Notes
This is pure bliss. Initially restrained, but after spending more than 40 minutes with a single glass, it opened up beautifully with a nuanced bouquet of cherry confiture, dark chocolate candies filled with liqueur and cherry, alongside notes of chorizo, leather, underbrush, and red flowers. Simply beautiful!
On the palate, it's both intense and delicate. The tannins are a bit dry, but the structure and balance are superb. The acidity isn't high, yet the wine doesn't lack freshness. The aftertaste is long, warm, delicate, and flavourful, with milk chocolate, raspberries, and a hint of peonies in the finish.
It's a charmer---a delicious wine you want to consume in big quantities, yet its character makes you appreciate it slowly, avoiding the rush. Despite its intensity, it still feels airy and pillowy.
