Tasting notes
Bright ruby-red. High-pitched aromas of raspberry, fresh rose and Asian spices, with a musky herbal nuance in the background. Juicy and precise, offering lively red fruit and spicecake flavors and a touch of bitter orange pith. Shows appealing sweetness on the finish, which is shaped by gentle, fine-grained tannins. In an elegant style and drinking very well now.

Bright ruby-red. Vibrant cherry and black raspberry on the nose, with exotic spices and flowers adding complexity. Juicy and lively on the palate, with brisk dark berry flavors, supple texture and building ripeness. The finish delivers terrific flavor impact with no excess weight, with the spice and floral notes repeating. This is already very sexy.
