Tasting Notes

A medium ruby red colour, lively when the wine is young. On the nose, a fragrant aroma with delicate, flowery and slightly fruity (fresh black cherry) scents, together with hints of spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, pepper). On the palate a moderate alcohol content, soft tannins and a good acidity. A medium-bodied, sapid, fresh and well-balanced wine.
