Color: antique garnet with orangey reflections and shiny that seduces the eye due to its delicate transparency.
Bouquet: great complexity and concentration dominated by the spices of licorice and juniper berries with a balsamic note of sandalwood and abundant toasting. Following is a fruity profile that recalls fruit in spirits, strawberry and blackberry jams, ending with hints of wilting flowers.
Taste: extreme taste elegance on the palate, vigorous with a dominant tannin that will reach its maximum evolution over the years. A sip where salinity and enticing freshness stand out, with a long and flavorful persistence in continuous evolution.
