It did not rain this year until the end of April and frosts reduced yield but this gave the grapes a higher sugar content. The concentration of sugar was evident in all its splendor after the grapes were dried, creating a full wine rich in texture. The garnet color has orange reflections and the intense aromatic profile has a great balance between the spice and notes of jam, coffee and graphite sensations. Precise tannins in the mouthfeel make it splendidly velvety with a lively texture upheld by an acidity that is still evident and distinct through a long finish that is warm, sumptuous and acute at the same time creating a precise and brilliant personality.
