It's a blend of Malbec, Cabernet Franc, and Syrah, offering a mix of red and dark fruit flavors, along with notes of spice, meat, and herbs, velvety tannins, juicy palate, and persistent finish.
Great varietal typicity and spices are appreciated. It is a wine with an expressive center of mouth, great balance and complexity from the ageing. It is deep and elegant, so it persists in the mouth, it has a long finish.
Bright rube red color, with dense tears. The wine presents a broad and complex aromatic spectrum that combines memories of ripe red fruits, balsamic and spicy notes such as eucalyptus and cloves. Undertones of cocoa and toasty flavors are perceived.
Savoury undertones on the nose of game and meaty notes over ripe black fruits, violets and hints of aromatic herbs and warm spices. Delicate, elegant, with a distinct wood framed palate of mocha.
