AROMA
Discrete on the first nose, aromas of fresh fruits mixed with fine wood hints that will blend with time. With a lot of potential, timid for the moment but with time will develop splendid.

powerful entrance, important presence on the palate with a long, tannic mineral finish. Complex and persistent, showing in this great vintage the nobility of its terrior.
