Tasting notes
Dark ruby-colored, with a gentle, cedary, herb-infused, cherry-scented bouquet, this soft, medium-bodied wine gives conflicting signals with its low acidity and high tannin. The attack is soft, but the tannin then kicks in, resulting in an attenuated, short finish. This wine should evolve for 8-10 years.
