Dark reddish purple color with primary fruity nose upon opening. Only after 4 hours of decant does the sweet sensations of dark fruit, dark chocolate and fresh leaves integrated with a light touch of oak began to emerge on the palate. This medium to full-bodied wine has impeccable balance and a slightly spicy finish. It is extremely young at this juncture and its best years are yet to come. It will be interesting to revisit this wine after few years in the cellar.

Very deep; chunky fruit on nose; chewy, still some tannin, big but balanced. grippy finish. Best drunk soon.
