Test Results | Its color is deep ruby. Very complex aroma, with a salience for spices, such as pepper, balsamic notes, cedar and tobacco box, red fruits, such as ripe plum, slate and a high quality, well integrated wood. In the mouth it has a vibrant acidity, very lively, very firm tannins, notes of spices, black fruits and balsamic flavors. The finish is extremely long, of great elegance and complexity. |
