Tasting Notes:

Luminous ruby, youthful shine. A drug, for immersion, dark and red fruits, herbs, grasses, hay, and flowers, highly complex. Very soft start, a mouth full of wine, concentrated and yet highly elegant, fine tannins, very good structure, aromatic very complex, the acidity perfectly integrated, no wood dominance, and an almost never-ending finish.
