The color is deep ruby; on the nose it develops notes of small red and black berries, with spicy nuances and a light hint of dark chocolate that compose a pleasant, straightforward bouquet. On the palate it shows good substance: tannins are present but rounded, with a balance between freshness and alcoholic warmth and a salinity that supports the finish, leaving the palate clean and stimulating. Readily enjoyable, it also shows scope for further evolution in bottle.
