NOSE :

With a wonderful bouquet of aromas of dark fruits, black currants blackberries, and notes of white flowers, wet rocks and licorice.

TASTING NOTES :

The palate is full and powerful, it has a weightless, seamless and elegant texture that carries a huge amount of fruit and texture, while never seeming heavy or cumbersome. Slightly more fresh and lively, with another level of richness. 97 points wine advocate
