Trial analysis
Deep black colour.
At first, the nose is very discreet but opens up with air. Then appear fruity notes of plums and cherries, but also mineral notes, chocolate and vanilla, with a hint of animal fragrances.
On the palate, this wine is a fruit bomb. Powerful, deep, its complexity with develop with time. A very good match for strong, tasty meats.
