Tasting notes
Tasting Notes: The 2023 vintage displays a deeply intense color with subtle violet reflections. The nose is powerful, dominated by fresh red fruit aromas, with underlying smoky notes from aging. On the palate, the attack is soft and smooth. The wine is vibrant and full-bodied, offering a broad spectrum of red fruit flavors. A highly expressive, pure, and indulgent vintage.
