Tasting notes:

This wine presents a deep ruby hue with some development evident in its color. The nose is inviting, offering an intriguing blend of stewed fruits, including plums and ripe cherries, alongside subtle notes of celery leaf, smoky tobacco, and hints of leather and cigar box. On the palate, the wine reveals a touch of maturity, showcasing a harmonious balance of stewed red and dark berry fruits, complemented by fine-grained, dry tannins that lend structure without overwhelming the fruit. The mid-weight body is enlivened by fresh acidity, creating a lively mouthfeel, while the finish is both warming and slightly chewy, revealing nuances of burnt rubber and ash that add complexity.
