WINEMAKER'S NOTE
Very dark and deep color. Intense, complex, slightly wooded nose, very rich, with hints of spice and very ripe wild berries. Exceptionally full in the palate, thanks to an impressive and superbly well rounded structure. Powerful, generous and plump, yet with great delicacy. It tastes remarkable at every stage in its life, from 2 to 50 years.
