Tasting Notes
A rare and magnificent magnum for the 2018 vintage, which once again confirms the greatness and identity of this wine. It reveals all the nobility and characteristics of the terroir from which it comes. The color is deep and intense, the aromatic palette brimming with aromas of wild berries, black cherries and freshness. The texture on the palate is superb, with a fine, silky texture, dense tannins and a long, persistent finish. A memorable magnum, an unforgettable moment in life!
Blend: 85% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc.
