Red-ruby. Pretty, scented aromas of red cherry, licorice, dark chocolate and flowers. Sweet, supple and fresh, with stony and floral notes-not to mention a menthol coolness-giving lift to the flavors. Quite spicy and aromatic in the mouth. Lingering finish features clove and chocolate.

(13.8% natural alcohol) Saturated medium ruby. Superripe, pure aromas of blackberry and bitter chocolate. Broad, chewy, rich and sweet, with a fine-grained texture and harmonious acidity. The black raspberry and chocolate flavors are dense and vibrant, with lovely lift. Finishes strong, sweet and aromatic, with smooth tannins, solid mineral spine and lingering perfume. A superb showing today.
