Colour:

Nose:
On the nose it is very complex and deep, with notes of ripe plum, earth, India ink and cocoa.
In the background remains the aroma of a noble wooden box that has had sweet spices.
Palate:
It is bulky and harmonious, with power and a lot of life ahead.
The tannins are silky and it lingers in the mouth for a long time, leaving free the aromas that we had felt in the nose wrapped in sensations of fresh elegance.
