$50.00 USD

Visual: deep red with purple hue
Nose: The aromatic complexity is revealing immediately on opening, when scents of ripe berries mingle with black fruits, but floral aromas as well, violet in particular, and vanilla smell in the background. A hint of graphite provides the mineral touch that completes olfaction. 
Palate: velvety and airy texture, however full-bodied and sappy. The tannins fill and cover the palate. Berry flavours reappear, accompanied by pralin aromas. The finish is warm, but nicely balanced by notes of violet and vanilla in retronasal olfaction.
