Made from 50% Merlot grapes, 45% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Petit Verdot. Aged in wood barrels for 18 months. A wine of rare balance and extraordinary elegance. Its ruby color is intense, lively and of excellent concentration. An enveloping bouquet, already complex, with scents of blueberry, black currant, accents of violet, spices, black pepper and cardamon, in particular, on a with a slight and delicious smoky background. The taste is dominated by a taut balance, almost aristocratic, between exceptionally delicate tannins and an alcoholic-glyceric structure which buffers any youthful brashness. The finish is subtle and very long. Simply fantastic.
