Deep ruby-red in color, with violet tones. Nose: Elegant and complex with aromas of very well-blended ripe red and black fruit. Aromas of crème de cassis, tobacco, and black pepper stand out against a backdrop of toast and pastry notes. Palate: Smooth but well-structured, which makes this wine a pleasure to drink now, but with years of cellaring potential ahead of it. Its round and near-sweet tannins balance very well with the acidity.
