Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a deep ruby color. The nose opens with fresh red berries such as cherry and raspberry, layered with hints of forest floor, spice, and a touch of black tea. On the palate, the wine is silky and poised, with well-integrated tannins and fresh acidity that gives it shape without heaviness. Red berry fruit leads, followed by warming notes of cinnamon and nutmeg, while the finish is long and nuanced with gentle earthy tones. It is a wine that can be enjoyed now for its freshness and finesse, but it also has the balance to develop gracefully over the next few years.
