Tasting notes
Bright ruby. The nose reveals wild berry aromas, accompanied by elegant floral notes of rose and violet and a delicate hint of spice. The palate is vibrant and juicy, with fresh fruit supported by lively acidity that heightens the wine’s energy and balance. The finish is long, clean and dynamic.
