WHY WE LOVE THIS WINE

On the nose it is fresh. It reveals notes of small berries, fresh lily / iris and more slightly varietal associated with small touches of blackberry, gray pepper and a fine hint of tobacco. On the palate it is fruity, balanced, a little tight and offers minerality, freshness, a very fine creaminess as well as good definition, concentration and some tension. This wine expresses notes of pulpy blackberry, creamy blackcurrant and slightly lilac, iris associated with touches of chocolate / mocha as well as fine hints of toast. Good length. The tannins are well developed.

ABOUT THE WINERY
